		<description>Guyz, having finished IB I can guarantee you a breeze of a first year in university! 
Yes, IB was definitely intense and true to the last word the original author posted along w/ some of the comments from people. I didn&#039;t start my TOK essay till 3 hours before it was due and still got my A =)
IB is the best thing ever despite all the hardships. The thing is, it does seem quiet difficult if you play by the book =P
Once you are done, you always reflect back as IB being the highlight of your academic career =D</description>

		<description>That was an entertaining and well written article indeed. The points you made were funny yet interesting. However, I must say that I am still up for this IB &#039;challenge&#039;.</description>

		<description>To all those saying &quot;it&#039;s not that hard&quot; you must enjoy not sleeping, not doing any extracurricular activities besides CAS hours, and having so much work you have to take mental health days. Your school must have been doing it wrong. 
However, I do enjoy the added challenge it has given me, however ironic you may find that to be. If you are bored in normal classes and/or wish to dedicate yourself to a much higher level, I recommend it. Just develop a good sense of humor and say goodbye to everything you love for two years. I heard it makes college a breeze.</description>

		<description>IB is a simple concept, IBO is actually an experimental agency, and they have one simple question they want to settle, &quot;To what extent (because IB LOVES &quot;To what extent) can a student handle the pressure and stress of a large amount of homework that is actually not realistic, until they are unable to continue further and end their life.&quot; 
So far, they have been unable to provide fruitful results, as most participants in the study (aka, us IB students) are more afraid of their parents (i.e. asian parents) than death, and we also lack the time to plan out a suicide, being under the tremendous amount of homework, thus the IB program continues, until one day they are able to find a conclusion to the question.</description>

		<description>In all honesty, I really cannot say that myself or many of my friends found that IB particularly difficult.

Not in a pretentious or gloating way, it just really wasnt THAT hard.

I wrote my EE in one night, that was the only time I had to resort to the Pro Plus. (That was entirely my fault, though, as I left it to the last minute despite having 2 months to write it)

The art, you see, is to simply not do the work that isnt necessary.

I sat my last exam this morning, and am now liberated. But I simply cannot say, looking back, that it was so tough.

Try the Abitur, now thats a fucking nightmare!

		<description>&#039;Gulp&#039;-I&#039;ve actually willingly entered to do the IB . Well if your article is anything to go by, I&#039;ve just signed my own social life off. Is it really that bad? Surely it can&#039;t be as terrifying as you make it out to be? Oh well, better start buying coffee sachets. Maybe some anti-depressants.
P.S- Great article, mildly entertaining, if not terrifying. Anyway, better be off I have a GCSE Maths paper in 19 hours exactly.</description>
