The International Baccalaureate program or IB Program is a very exclusive program in which the people who created it’s only goal is to drag there student as close to suicide as physically possible without losing their jobs. This program will quite literally make you lose your marbles. You thought you liked school? Not anymore. You thought you liked art? Not anymore. You like Music? Well too fucking bad. This program will crush your hopes and dreams until you are nothing but zombie filled with useless information. As someone in this program i can attest to the shear amount of times you will threaten to quit the program but just can’t bring yourself to do it. IB is a cult. The only positive thing this program will lead to is severe alcoholism, and addiction to narcotics, a deadly STD, or if you get lucky, a stoner who has lost self respect. On the bright side though colleges might like you slightly better! 👍

"International Baccalaureate Programme". An internationally recognized program for academically gifted high school students. Similar to AP, however some may argue that it is more challenging and more unified. This program has special requirements for the students and to get the "IB Diploma," a student must be taking enough HL and SL courses chosen from 6 different categories. In addition, each student must take Theory of Knowledge (TOK) and complete the Extended Essay. Students enrolled in this program will generally be accepted into difficult colleges because they are impressed by the super sacred IB seal that will be attached to the first page of the student's transcript.
IB Program student 1: "Hey, wanna hear a joke?"
IB Program student 2: "Sure!"
IB Program student 1: "AP classes!"
IB Program student 2: "Sure!"
IB Program student 1: "AP classes!"

One of the most challenging high school programs, yet totally useless. IB students rarely have a life, and if they do usually do not do well in their academics. The IB curriculum is usually adapted to their specific high school, however IB students are required to write IAs in every subject, the world lit essay, and extended essay (4000 words) and complete at least 150 CAS (creative, active, service) hours.
The average IB student gets between 2-5 hours of sleep every night, due to hour long procrastination and a huge work load. They are also typically divided into at least 5 groups:
- The hard working, well doing nerd (no life)
- The hard working, not so well doing nerd (no life)
- The semi hard working, well doing normal teeny (a life)
- The "I don't give a shit" person (PARTYYY)
- The smart person who doesn't work (PARTYYYY)
Despite the different types of IB students the typical IB student is awkward. They lack the normal gossipy world of high school, and are sheltered and protected from anything that's not school-related. On top of that, whenever IB students hang out, the only thing they are able to talk about is school.
It is however to be considered, that most IB students hate the IB program and wish they could "drop out" or "drop to academic".

Example 1:
IB1: Hey __________, what's up?
IB2: Not much really, just working on my World Lit.
IB1: Oh really? And how did you do on that Math Test?
IB2: Man, so badly. Dude I hate the IB Program.
Example 2:
nonIB: Hey, how are you?
IB: Pretty good, hbu?
nonIB: Same. Did you hear about ________ and ________ breaking up? I can't believe they are over, they've been together for ever!
IB: They were in a relationship??!?!?! :O
*awkward silence*
nonIB: Man you guys in the IB Program don't hear about anything!

Fucking hell kill me please. listen, the IB (The International Baccalaureate) it a great high school diploma program, but also it will kill your mental health and any emotion stability you have in life. From personal experience, it consists of a lot of sleepless nights and mental breakdowns. It is a great program and gets you ready for collage.. but for 2 years IA, EE and TOK will be the only thing on your mind. Other then that I 100% recommend it.
friends in normal school - "hey what are you doing today?'
casual IB Program student - "cramming my IA and EE while sitting on the floor and eating ice cream. w fizz tbh"
