I stayed up till 4am to get this. I got mah I.B Diploma. Got better than I thought, and man am I relieved and happy (I've secured my spot in my uni now).

Anyone else here doing I.B as well?
 
No, but I know a lot of people who're doing it / have done it. Congrats! It must've been extremely tough.
 
I was thinking to myself, "does he mean the International Baccalauriate? Isn't that only a UK thing?" before the penny dropped. Congrats. I just finished my degree. SUCK IT
 
Me too. What were your final scores?

ENGLISH A1 HL...........................5
FRENCH B HL.............................4
HIST.AMERICAS HL in ENGLISH...6
POLITICS EE in ENGLISH............C
PHYSICS SL in ENGLISH..............7
MATHEMATICS HL in ENGLISH.....5
MUSIC GR.PERF SL in ENGLISH....6
THEORY KNOWL. TK in ENGLISH...C

Obviously I didn't spend much time and effort on my EE and ToK essay. Hah.
 
7 in physics? Holy shit.

I don't want to post my score, but I'd let you know we're around the same :).

Oh, and I.B is a Diploma from the U.K, but a lot of international schools make use of it. I study (or studied) in an international school in HK, and almost all international schools in H.K are shifting from A Levels to I.B (I.B is more coveted nowadays).
 
I think I hit 40 overall but that was 6 years ago, and I worked a lot harder in high school than I ever did in university engineering and people were always bitching about how hard that was.
 
I.B. is a High School equivalent degree, I think. Good on you, duder. Got a year left on my B.A. yet--then I can proceed to sit on my humanities degree and go broke until I save enough to live comfortably in grad school.
