IB Conference 3/15

Today I talked to the sophomores about the IB program. I thought it went fairly well, and I did my best to answer their questions. I basically told them that the best way to decide their future classes is to really talk to their teachers and see what those classes entail. I also tried to stress the importance of picking a class that your really passionate about, not just something you are good at.I talked about how in my sophomore year I had a 98 average in physics, and took it because I thought it would be easy for me, and now it is one of my worst classes. I also told them about how theatre was something I was passionate about, but I never really understood how hard and how much work it was truly going to be. I gave them the advice on how to important it is to start your EE essay during your junior year, or else you will dig yourself into a ditch. One last thing I stressed was how important it is to eat healthy, and that i noticed my senior year is when I ate the worst out of all my years in high school. I tried my best to voice my personal opinion and answer all of the questions to the best of my ability. The sophomores seemed to leave the meeting with a better understanding of what they were about to embark on.
