[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to counter.."everybody graduated with flying colors"  I know 2 kids that dropped out before 11th grade and another that stayed in but did not get the diploma.  All are successful college students at good schools now.[/quote]

Every batch will see 1-2 students drop out. These are extremely bright students if they got into RMIB at the first place, so I am not surprised that they are very successful students in very good schools. They are still cream of the crop.

The world over the IB dropout rate is significantly higher than RMIB. You have not countered anything. Those who graduated, graduated with high grades in their IB courses (akin to 4s and 5s in AP exams) - so everybody did graduate with flying colors.

I find it strange that you have to find negatives in a program when your own child has not gone through it, and you have no first hand experience.   There is not a dearth of applicants who will be lining up to get into RMIB. They will not hurt for the best and brightest.[/quote]
