[quote=Anonymous]Many of the features of the IB program are not very useful. There’s no tangible benefit to getting the IB diploma, literally nobody cares except for bragging rights. There’s no benefit in taking the IB specific classes like Theory of Knowledge, and CAS. Just take a real class and do real extracurriculars instead. SL classes are not advanced coursework, they are just like regular or honors classes. The two year HL classes move too slow compared to the one year APs, and go in less depth. When it comes to advantages we only hear about critical thinking problem solving global citizen, because there’s nothing better they can come up with. [/quote]
