Which Subjects Should I Choose?
The IB Diploma is a highly flexible programme, so when it comes to choosing subjects think about the following:
- What subjects do you think you will enjoy?
- What subjects will you do well in? What are your strengths that you can build upon? See here for Entry Requirements.
- What are the subjects which relate to your career or university goals?
