    I dont know about the american/uk system, it might be better there. I went to the international line in europe and it was a complete disharmony between how the teachers thought they should teach and what kind of teaching IB required. Theres also a lot of shady stuff with IB, like you can basically pay for an expensive tutor and completely coincidentally they will teach you the exact right knowledge to get a good score on the exams. The problem with this is that if the exams dont have a certain subject in them that year, the tutor wont teach that. Basically if you want your kid to be a successfull businessman or whatever, and you have a lot of money, 100% send em to IB, but if you want them to think for themselves, theres very probably a better option. Once again this mainly applies to my experiences in europe, there are many countries here where IB is a joke, like in hungary nobody goes there cause you have to pay, get worse education, and dont really have any oppurtunities going forward with it. Id say go ask other people but some of them will be absolute IB shills for no reason, and others will say its the antichrist itself. Also from what i understand, you do have to pay for education in uk to get somewhere right? Then id guess IB isnt that bad cause youre paying either way for school.

    Idk but IB regulations are kinda like this, and ive heard of people actually taking other students/teachers to court over shit. IB is the most fucked up school you could choose ever, do not choose it(speaking from experience). So if your child wants to go on an international line its much better to get some government scolarship kindof thing if thats possible.




  • Nah that would be unhinged, i usually go in the part of the city where theres a completely seperate bike and pedastrian path. Theres also a part near my house(up on a hill) where i can(more like could, in not such a daredevil) overtake cars. Of course this is a pretty serious downhill but the same way you do it, after you already accelerate its easier to keep the speed tho im a pretty big guy so the wind resistance is insane. But its a pretty good feeling when i get to the city faster than the bus by like 10-20 minutes tho once again i live on a hill so getting home is torture. I also went to an event in the city with friends once and i had a bike cause thats the way i got there and we started at the same time, them with a bus, me with bike and it was so funny when i told them i was waiting for five minutes.
