Questions about SJI IB programme

[emoh]

octopusmum:

HI all


am thinking of whether to choose SJI as the first choice for its IB programme...here are some questions i have:
1) is it true that IB is more suitable for those who are strong in language and there are actually a lot of writing involved? my son is strong in maths and science but quite weak in both languages so this is a big concern..
2) how many percent of the students in SJI IB goes to Local universities? what is the trend like?
3) what is the average IB score of the students and how many got full scores?

Thanks.

thanks emoh…yes, i have gone thru the posts in the attached link re the comparison between IB and A levels. am still fuzzy about whether the IB is suited for my kid…


actually, what is the entry requirement to our local universities for IB students? what score must they attain before they can be admitted to NUS/NTU? depends on the course? or is there a minimum score?
