I'm going into the ib program for high school next year, and i was just wondering what are some pros and cons of the program. a simple list will be fine. you!

Hey I'm a freshman in IB in celebration high school in central Florida. If you're considering the IB program it's probably because you're bright and school has always come easy to you. The hardest part of IB is for the smartest kids who have always had it easy (myself included), because now it's not so easy. It means studying (I had never studied before), it means not allowing yourself to get distracted at all or you will work till 1-2 am daily. It also means less free time ( this was hardest on me). It is ready once you changed your mindset to "school first, play second" (something I've never had). But in the end you're so prepared to heavy workloads and for college. Colleges know this when they see an IB diploma so they like these kids a lot and accept them often (if you're grades are at the very minimum C or B average. (Ivy league won't accept less than A's across the board usually). In the end you likely get to a good college and do well in college that is the plus.
