[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m pushing my kid to do the IB diploma. I am European and this is the closest thing to what European kids have to master in order to go to university. Really the only other parents I see valuing the IB diploma are other Europeans. Not sure that I would push it if I didn’t have the cultural expectation. [/quote] Don’t plan to push, but same background and encourage it for my organized, self-driven kid. I find the anti-IB posters on DCUM to be a bit nuts. It’s challenging, but not as intense as they make it out to be, and makes for an easier transition to university. And my own kids are bright, but not gifted or prepped.[/quote]
