IB Programme Teaches Life Skills
I’m not dropping it!” I told myself when faced with the decision to drop the IB Diploma or not. This decision came to a head in the middle of January, when the word “school” sounded like something a half-crazed man would say. School was just not at the top of my to-do-list.
Throughout this year I have heard of at least five students that have dropped either the IB Diploma or a certificate class. Although it was a struggle, I am proud to say I’m not going to drop it.
I’m not saying that I hadn’t thought about it. I have. But the struggles I faced throughout the year created a learning opportunity for me. Through this, I feel confident that my performance for next year would be the best of my ability because of the knowledge I gained on how everything should run.
The sole reason for staying in the IB Programme is the need to finish what I have started. This program has also made me the person I am now. The IB Diploma has helped me with the struggles everyone will face later in life.
