“I'm practicing the knowledge from my IB Business class every day.

The IB program is rigorous and requires a lot of patience, work, and determination. However, you have the opportunity to learn so many things that makes it more than worth it. Doing the IB gives you different skills like an open mind, time management, determination, always pushing to do your best, and setting up boundaries for yourself.
