70 - 74 : A2.


Yes. IP boys scoring A1 & A2 will get a 7 for their final results - A huge "advantage" over boys taking HMT.

Haha. True......my boy also made the same claim about his HMT & would keep trying to justify that he did 'ok' for his year-end by adding 'bonus points' to HMT. :skeptical:

Am also expecting a 'sick' boy tomorrow. He went just when his flu was starting to worsen.

Hi BeContented,

Haha, that's the best consolation the boys on HMT can use to balance up right? Nvm, cheer him on and let him know that he can breeze thru Chinese B @ yr 5 without sweat

So our boys suffer the same fate before OEP. I was like a remote pharmacist telling him what pills to pop twice a day.

Let's jiayou to bring them back to health by 29th Jan! :rahrah:

Miracle Child:

I was going through the curriculum of IB. Is it fair to say that unless the kid is very strong in language and able to express himself/herself well, to achieve very good results for IB Full Dip will be very tough? I saw EE, TOK and 2 main subjects relate to languages. Appreciate any thoughts on this. Thanks.

Hi! I would prefer to say that so far, all the students I've seen (including several batches of foreign students without particularly strong EL) have gained much from the IB programme and -become- stronger in language and more able to express themselves. Then they achieve 42+ points.

For EE and TOK, the combined bonus is 3 points max. For the main subjects, one is a literature or lit/lang subject (I would go for the pure lit; easier) and the other is a second language (really second language, not the more challenging 'mother tongue', and hence probably easier than O-level).

You need not fear; the whole point of the IB is to make students more well-rounded and more able to survive and prosper in an increasingly internationalised and globalised world.

He'll be so glad to have u pick him up.
The dreadful part of OEP - students, teachers alike come home sick. -.-
