Do students in both of these programs have an advisor with whom they can check in frequently to get support in building study/organizational skills?
There's one at Kennedy.
All the schools that offer IB programs have an IB coordinator who is in theory there to advise students (among other things).

Really tough workload too. I had more work in RMIB than I did in college (went to a HYP college). We used to sleep 2am-6am regularly in order to finish the workload. Normal to take all the IB exams and at least 10 APs.
I'm sorry, but this is not healthy for any child. Honestly, do you think you were having time management issues or was that normal for the program? As a parent, I think it would be very difficult to convince me to allow my child to enroll in a program like that.

Want to add we had fantastic teachers, memorable over a lifetime. Many have retired since I was there, so not sure what the current teachers are like.
