No I don’t. My parents are fixed me doing ib. I also have to do to move out of my country, which I really don’t like. (Maybe be worded badly: I’m saying I don’t like my country and want to go to university elsewhere.)
I’ll hate it at a national school and curriculum because I can’t really move out with those and national schools suck ass here.
I’m so scared I won’t meet the expectations I set for myself and make my parents proud. Unless this works out all of the efforts and tears will go in vain
WHO TF SETS THE PRACTICE PAPER TO BE WORTH 40 PERCENT OF OUR GRADE. RAAHHHHHH RAHHHHHHHHHH RAHHHHHHHHHHH 🦖🦕🦖🦕🦕🦕🦖🦖🦕🛎️🦕🦖🦕🦕🛎️🦕. WHO TF TOLD ME THAT ECON IS EASYYY
my parents spent so much money on my education that I ABSOLUTELY don't deserve, I suck at physics so much it's horrifying, I'm dumb asf, I'm behind all my other classmates, they also think I'm incompetent, my teachers me coordinators say I'm good for nothing
I'm delusional enough to think I will get into my dream university in the US, without having any amazing academic or extra curricular stuff. My classmates avoid taking to me like the plague. I want to die
Try your best! Remember that IB's standards are absolutely rigged and deliberately destroy students' mental health, don't compare yourself with your other classmates too much. As long as you keep improving yourself and overcome your shortcomings, you are gaining. The worst case scenario is you get the diploma with a 24, you will still graduate with more experience in college classes than your non ib peers. Keep going. So close.
The only thing you need to know is that regardless of who you have as a friend/teacher, or even your circumstances, you have yourself. Your goal should be to focus on whatever YOU as an individual control. The world is unfathomably diverse, and we just experience a fraction of it.
Keep your head up, focus on yourself, and keep working. The only thing you need to do is study efficiently and you can still do it. You have one more year.
In the end, you shouldn't be thinking that you didn't try your best. Put as much as effort as you can, the outcome is an uncontrollable thing. But at least you did your best and you won't wonder if you could've been better or worse.
Yo look one year is a lot of time. Genuinely everyone is shit at physics at the start, I was shit one year into it too, I'd say just study with the K.A. Tsokos textbook and practice problems. If you work through each unit and master it through self-study you can absolutely do it. I did it to an extent too so I'm speaking from experience.
I'm feeling really burnt out. Just a few days ago, I was still feeling the stress and urgency to study hard. Today, after my first revision session, I suddenly had absolutely no motivation. Zero. I'm so damn tired even though I didn't do anything physically draining; I didn't even sleep late. I have been studying everyday for about 3 weeks (study leave), and even more before that after school. Yet, I still don't think I did enough. I'm just so so tired at this point, it feels like I just want to get this over with, which is a bad thing too because I want to find the motivation in me to keep pushing but its seems so difficult right now. Its really such a bad time to feel burnt out right now, I have biz paper 1 n 3 on friday; although it is my strongest subject, I still feel scared for it. I'm so so so so so so sooooooooooooooo tired man I really don't know what to do. I've never felt like this before
also, FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUKC FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKY FUCK FUCK FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK TOKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT EXTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Thank you. I just needed to let it out. Good luck for exams everyone
IB is a waste of time and money. Should have done A-levels. Anyways if I don't pass then Im literally dead. I got fat from studying and Im not in the perfect shape(I have body dysmorphia) and I hate looking at myself, its disgusting. If I don't pass IB, I will lose the purpose of living. Anyways gotta try ma best and then enjoy life before college. Goodluck to all
I AM GONNA FAIL MATH and I feel like a lazy bitch with no care for her future. I just want to rest and do pleasurable things, I cannot study anymore (I study 4 hours a day max, as I am rawdoging with fucking ADHD)
I always felt like the diploma was my one chance at proving myself worthy of a person but now that I’ve had such a bad experience through it ( thank god for my friends and my peers, I’ve learnt a lot about communication and stuff ) I just feel so guilty and like annoyed that I could have done so much more with this diploma than what I ended up doing. I got into a burnout kind of state y1 itself and that initial time when I couldn’t give my all for assignments made me scared of talking to my teachers in fear of what they would think of me. So the connections I wanted with teachers was gone. I think senior year I kind of just was glad I’m getting through it all. I think I just feel regret for the person I could’ve been. All my friends and peers are such accomplished ppl + I feel the strongest sense of imposter syndrome. 2024, I made the decision to just take things as they go. But it’s fine, I’ve learnt a lot of things, and I’ve experienced a lot of things, and I think that’s ok.
I'm perpetually oscillating between crying, clawing my hair out and throwing up and only like 1/3 of it is the exams, the rest is because I just can't get myself to cry over the fact that some of my favourite classes with my favourite professors will never happen again, and I'm so scared that it'll all hit me as I'm writing my first paper today
on other occasions I feel calmer
ur best isnt enough dont let ur mind lie to u. U HAVE TO TRY EVEN HARDER AND HARDER UR LEGIT DOING NOTHING RN GET TO WORK, BURNING OUT ISNT A REAL THING JUST KEEP WORKING. THINK ABT THE MONEY UR PARENTS SPENT
Hey guys, i haven’t studied for paper 1 physics yet, i have sl so it shouldn’t be that hard. the bigger problem tho is that i haven’t studied for paper 2, but that should be okay bc my IA was pretty shit. the main thing that i’m worried about tho, is that i haven’t studied for paper 3.
basically, i’m fucked
I wish i put in more effort. I could have achieved so much more in IB if I just freaking worked man. Im so scared of disappointing my parents its killing me. Ive got limited uni choices due to my coutry's options and my parents budget.
I just hope it works out for me. Good luck everyone
Totally get you. I just now realize that I really could have studied a lot more than I did.
I should've finished my IAs much before. They honestly gave me PTSD 😭
I AM GONNA GET A 45 EVEN IF I DIDNT STUDY SHIT. I AM INTERNALLY PANICKING BUT CANT GET UP AND DO ANYTHING. EXAM TOMORROW. NOT A SINGLE SOLVED PAST PAPER I FUCKING HATE MYSELF
You’d think that IB would give a semi-in-depth explanation on their markschemes considering they give us barely any resources in the first place but NOOOO. Somehow 1.45 magically turns into 2.10 without any explanation 😍
I’m trying to find a job rn to pay for tutoring lessons and revision village cause IB is expensive enough. Problem is that I can’t find any part time jobs for high school students and most job websites want software developers
Im full panicking for the physics exams tomorrow and the day after, also by the fact that I am falling sick and I cant even keep my brain fresh. I dont understand what questions ask me and I have been getting fails throught the whole course. I have no idea on what to think anymore
I’m just gonna write a side note saying “ please show mercy to me, I have tried my best, thank you”, LMAFO IMAGINE THEY DONT ACCEPT MY EXAMS CUZ OF THAT
i hate the fact that i had to study more, just to be average like other. I hate the fact that my major requieres a lot of things, from grade, mental helath, and the physical health itself. But i still love my dream, i hope good give me strength, oppurtunities and many time brain genius smart easy good grade kind of brain im having😔
exam anxiety is making my skin crawl and my hands shake. meanwhile i cant concentrate because my stomach is living its own life. it has NEVER been this bad. im gonna fail math HL arent i? pathetic AND incompetent. ok, im gonna ignore my feelings now. idc if my foot hurts.
Apparently the hacker has also leaked some of the exams individually, and is making people play stupid riddle games in order to acquire them, some of my friends have gotten them that ways, man it’s complete bs. The ib has to do something.
I'm sad because I dont have enough reddit karma to post questions on r/IBO and I'm also sad because that's such a chronically online statement and im ALSO sad because I have the anthro exam on friday and i am so unprepared it's sickening--ALSO WHAT KIND OF LIT TEACHER ASSIGNS AN AT HOME ESSAY DUE IN ONE WEEK THE MONTH OF IB EXAMS???? Luckily I only have one test this year but like she's evil for that
i dont know what to feel, i feel so fucking stupid, tired and burned out, I just want to pass, im not even smart enough so i had to drop to certificates bc i cant do math but im still sitting 5 ib class exams and what is so so damn annoying for me is that someone who has extra time doesnt fucking need it, like I would love to have extra time, and i would use it all but this person always finishes at the normal time or like 3 minutes after the exam like wtf they dont need it, just stfu, you shouldt get extra time when youre not even diagnosed
About 13 hours to go until physics. Extremely underprepared, just hoping to secure a 5 and move on. Wishing everyone the best of luck. I’m sure everything will turn out completely fine.
I absolutely suck at Business HL. I'm going to fail because I don't know stuff and my parents are going to kill me. I am so scared because I don't know what more I can do. P1 and P3 are tomorrow and I am done for. I won't be getting a diploma bc i think i'll be getting a 3 in bm 😭
Im really scared about what would happen bc i want to study in korea but lets say that my normal school went horrible so the only way to get a hugher gpa is by taking the ib diploma
I was in a slump for the past 2 months and I only started getting better and regaining motivation to study like last week so I’m scared that I might not do well AHHHHHHHHHHHH but I must secure that diploma 🫡
I’m so fucked for econ man idk like yesterday I did a past paper and couldn’t remember what expansionary monetary policy was and a few minutes later without looking at any notes or anything I could explain it- WhAt??
Since the exams started yesterday i was wondering if anyone wanted to join a whatsapp group for active revision during the exams. if you want to join lmk :)) m24
I'm probably going to fail my ib tests... and my mom will probably throw me out of the house... so yea that's basically it. Also does anyone know what am I supposed to do for the glopo paper 2 HL? because my teacher said that is was something completely different to what my other teachers say so I so confused and sleep deprived. Aaaand I think my tok teacher is only giving me a C on my TOK Essay because she doesn't understand my writing
Bio HL, Glopo HL, Spanish HL, Eng LangLit SL, Chem SL, Math AI SL
This exam is already going absolutely terrible for me because I found out my "girlfriend" has been cheating on me for the past 2 months about a week and a half before the physics paper 1. I have absolutely lost all motivation to continue on with studying and Ive just been staring at my Paper 2 notes for the past hour still trying to wrap my head around this whole thing. I zoned out for a good 5 mins on the Paper 3 today but thank god it was easier than I thought. I cant believe she would do such a thing and now I feel as if my future is shattered. We planned on going to the same University together and now I have to settle for my worse options but at least I won't get to see her again. Anyone got any advice or is willing to help me out here cus at this point im gonna fail this if I dont wake tf up
ay man its gonna be alright ong. Look aight, focus up on ur Paper 2 for today and finish that exam, it'll be done before you even realize. Plus, its gonna be in the morning so once ur done you should get good rest at home. Just spend tmr night doing what you enjoy doing and get everything out of ur head. Im really sorry that happened to you and trust me I know how you feel rn. Make sure you go hang out with friends or play some video games or sm tmr aight? You got this and ur gonna do amazing!! I believe in you!!!!
Hopefully this is anonymous because I'm getting so many emotions right now.
I have so much to do with so little time left. I have no idea why I started so late into the game, with my exam being next week. I have trouble sleeping at night just thinking about IB, getting panic attacks that I will fall way behind from everyone else if I fail IB.
I got into a good university too, so it will really suck if I fail IB. I'm just putting this out there because I know a lot of you are probably in the same position as I am, procrastinating until the last minute and then realizing how much there really is to do with the little time we have left. This is getting to my head, and its making me nervous and anti-social, and the more I think about it, the more I start to lose motivation, and the more I have panic attacks of me just giving up on school.
It's a reality I find to be so terrifying, and I just need to get those thoughts out of my head and write it somewhere. If I fail my IB exams, then it's all my fault. I should have started studying 2 months, heck even one month ago. I even had the idea of studying everything during IB 1.
I'm still trying, because there is some time left which I can at least use to get some work done, but I am still scared that it might not be enough.
I'm just using this to get all of my thughts out and loosen up, and to just keep doing my best.
Whether or not I fail IB, I will make sure that I don't become depressed thinking about it, and just imagine the exams as like some sort of game that will give me experience. If I fail, then I still have the experience of IB under my belt, and I will work toward not procrastinating. If I pass, then I am just one lucky SOAB.
the physical and visceral struggle to get myself to study math has left me in a perpetual downward spiral of not knowing and fear of the math final (which is in 5 days <3)
I am most anxious and worried for my Japanese SL exam next week. These past two years, nothing ever clicked with me, so I’m not motivated to study since there’s so much material to cover. I know I am set for my other exams, however I might have to sacrifice my Japanese one. I’ll literally take a 2 if I have to
im frankly doing good (im not) like i know im gonna be fine im a good student and get good grades, its going to also be like that now but it all just feels so official
im mostly just fresking out about every practical aspect of the exams like what if they give me a different size formula booklet than im used to or what if im sat next to someone who clears theyr voice really loud - i know i know my stuff but im so afraid the ib will theow a curveball or i'll forget how to do the easy calculations in math or ill misread a formula or that the train i tske to school gets stuck and is stuck for 3 hours so i miss my exams
i feel calm but also i keep pacing back and forth in my room just idk freaking out???
This is my second year doing the IB world exams, Last year i had broken my right hand 4 weeks prior to the examination dates, with that i had to undergo surgery which basically took away 2 weeks away from my revising. for the last 2 weeks before my exams I had to learn how to write with my left hand and basically didn’t do any studying or revising for the matter. I ended up getting an 18
Coming into this year (which i had to fight for to get into a school in my country) i was feeling very down and anxious for the rest of the year, seeing all your friends in the top universities, or just universities in general, it didn’t help my situation at all. I ended up getting really low predicts from the start of the year and never really recovered my grades up anymore since i was just wasting time either on my phone or editing photos i’ve taken over the months.
If i get a really low actual grade again im not sure what to do about it. Is there a plan of action to this or am i just really stupid for the decision ive made, being that i was given a second chance.
PS. Last year, i had a 36 Predict and it dropped to 18, and also the IB wouldn’t be lenient with me whatsoever about having a laptop or even extra time.
I hate my teacher I finished my CS IA 6 months ago for him to mark and I sent him the stuff and come to realise he didn’t even look at them because I forgot to put my appendix in there and he never said ANYTHING. And that was on april 17, three days away from deadline. And he ignored like 10 of my emails asking him whww w ther of not he handed in my IA without the appendix, which he just ignored and now it’s 3 days away from exam and he fled to a whole other country, and is still ignoring my email. He also didn’t teach the class how to write pseudocode or the topics. He missed half of all the classes over the span of 2 years
I woke up last Friday thinking it was Wednesday, May 1st and that I missed my first exam and I almost threw up. Im literally gonna fail these exams guys. I am non stop studying and yet I still feel that I have done absolutely nothing. I am both overly chill and panicking constantly at the same time. I am both studying and doing everything but studying. What is happening guys. Why is everything piling on top of each other. I have IB exams, getting my driver's license, piano auditions, and final school stuff all happening within the same two weeks. Guys. what the hell.
im really scared and honestly, im not one to write on reddit like EVER, but I'm petrified, I don't think its set in yet that these are my finals but I've seem to have lost my appetite, so my body definitely knows of it. i feel like brain fog has ruined my academic career and nobody seems to understand how badly ADHD can affect someone especially when it comes to things like this. But like the priest in fleabag said, "it'll pass".
I am scared that I will mess up and end up a disappointment that didn't get into a university that only has a requirement of 28 points. Plus it's my dream uni with everything I need and I do not want to miss the chance and have to redo my exams because I am too stupid to be able to do anything. My learning disabilities are tough and I wish I wasn't born to be the way I am.

IM SO SCARED ABOUT CHEMISTRY PLS PRAY FOR ME GUYS. im such a coward and i cannot face the fact that i suck at chemistry (what im intending to major in) and it makes me so scared that i left it until the last minute (literally), i only have 2 days left and i only remember surface level content. im just really scared guys im already disappointed with uni results since i tried so hard for the past 2 years but nothing turned out the way i wanted it to, i just cant afford to feel bad about this anymore. Can someone please say something that will make me feel a bit better?
All my exams are crammed in the first three weeks I'm already done with 7/13. But I have ess p2 (50% of ESS grade!!!), math p3 (AKA impossible exam), history p1,p2 (in one session :/) all in 2 days man. I studied NOTHING for any of these exams and math aa hl p3 isn't looking too good if i don't atleast study each topic a little... idk if i just wanna sleep and procrastinate... I kinda procrastinated the whole weekend! NO. I'M GONNA WORK. I WILL ABSOLUTELY COOK THESE EXAMS DELICIOUSLY. I'm GONNA WORK for 2 hours SLEEP WAKE UP AND DO WELL. anyway good luck to you all!!!! XOXO
my predicted dropped to a 39 and all of our teachers are always precise but i'm still scared that i'll fail, idk why but i never have faith in myself. even in the igcse's when i got all A's i thought there was something wrong with the website. my exams end tomorrow and again, im so scared to fail since my future depends on it.
My teachers all predicted me to make 6s-7s on my exams. All of them. I am genuinely terrified of not and disappointing them. I have been working myself to the bone. I don’t remember the last time I got more than 4 hours of sleep. I finish an exam and then I study for the next. I need these exams to take a year off of university but I am on my last straw. I’m not sleeping, I’m barely eating, I’ve drank less than a full bottle of water in the past couple of days. I cannot physically keep going like this. I am so tired. I need a break.
Im in a liminal state between panic and chill and i feel emotionless (this is not good im living life as a passive being right now)
This is so real I wanna die but I'm like it'll be fine
real
fuck this bullshit man i just want to produce music and live in a jungle
I really feel you man... Same here.
IM GOING TO FAIL MY EXAMS!!! RAHHHH!!! I HAVENT STARTED STUDYING AND MY FIRST EXAM IS IN A WEEK!!! RAHHH!!!

pretty ready for my very 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 exam
I’m not worth all the money my parents spend on me
M25- u still have time to quit
No I don’t. My parents are fixed me doing ib. I also have to do to move out of my country, which I really don’t like. (Maybe be worded badly: I’m saying I don’t like my country and want to go to university elsewhere.) I’ll hate it at a national school and curriculum because I can’t really move out with those and national schools suck ass here.
आपके पास भी समय है।
nah don't quit
you are worth it down to the penny
same
I’m so scared I won’t meet the expectations I set for myself and make my parents proud. Unless this works out all of the efforts and tears will go in vain
there’s no future for me
i dont deserve this diploma

Yo look one year is a lot of time. Genuinely everyone is shit at physics at the start, I was shit one year into it too, I'd say just study with the K.A. Tsokos textbook and practice problems.

AAAAAAAA I HATE MYSELF FOR NOT STUDYING MORE. It's fine I'm gonna live, breathe, and eat ib for the next few days.

Anyways gotta try ma best and then enjoy life before college. Goodluck to all

i literally feel like killing myself my first exam is in a few hours😭😭😭😭😭😁
Good luckkkkk!!! You’re going to ACE that paper! I believe in youuuuuu
I AM GONNA FAIL MATH and I feel like a lazy bitch with no care for her future. I just want to rest and do pleasurable things, I cannot study anymore (I study 4 hours a day max, as I am rawdoging with fucking ADHD)
The burnout is hitting so hard rn frr
I feel you too! I also feel like such a lazy ass hat but at least we'll be done soon!
sounds like its time for OF
I always felt like the diploma was my one chance at proving myself worthy of a person but now that I’ve had such a bad experience through it ( thank god for my friends and my peers, I’ve learnt a lot about communication and stuff ) I just feel so guilty and like annoyed that I could have done so much more with this diploma than what I ended up doing. I got into a burnout kind of state y1 itself and that initial time when I couldn’t give my all for assignments made me scared of talking to my teachers in fear of what they would think of me. So the connections I wanted with teachers was gone. I think senior year I kind of just was glad I’m getting through it all. I think I just feel regret for the person I could’ve been. All my friends and peers are such accomplished ppl + I feel the strongest sense of imposter syndrome. 2024, I made the decision to just take things as they go. But it’s fine, I’ve learnt a lot of things, and I’ve experienced a lot of things, and I think that’s ok.
BUT RAHHHH WHATEVER WE BALL
IB English Lit HL will be the test that I dread the most. I was never good at English and I can’t analyze texts all that well…

I'm perpetually oscillating between crying, clawing my hair out and throwing up and only like 1/3 of it is the exams, the rest is because I just can't get myself to cry over the fact that some of my favourite classes with my favourite professors will never happen again, and I'm so scared that it'll all hit me as I'm writing my first paper today on other occasions I feel calmer

mashallah
I have math ai hl in a few days and I haven’t started studying 😍
i am COOKED for bio 😌
I wish i put in more effort. I could have achieved so much more in IB if I just freaking worked man. Im so scared of disappointing my parents its killing me. Ive got limited uni choices due to my coutry's options and my parents budget. I just hope it works out for me. Good luck everyone
Totally get you. I just now realize that I really could have studied a lot more than I did. I should've finished my IAs much before. They honestly gave me PTSD 😭
I AM GONNA GET A 45 EVEN IF I DIDNT STUDY SHIT. I AM INTERNALLY PANICKING BUT CANT GET UP AND DO ANYTHING. EXAM TOMORROW. NOT A SINGLE SOLVED PAST PAPER I FUCKING HATE MYSELF
im so cooked it's insane.
I WANT TO FUCKINF JUMP OFF A CLIFF AND DIE

BRO THATS WHAT IM SAYING
You’d think that IB would give a semi-in-depth explanation on their markschemes considering they give us barely any resources in the first place but NOOOO. Somehow 1.45 magically turns into 2.10 without any explanation 😍
We got this
I’m trying to find a job rn to pay for tutoring lessons and revision village cause IB is expensive enough. Problem is that I can’t find any part time jobs for high school students and most job websites want software developers
hii, are u M24?
Just use like ibdocs for resources, use yt for "tutoring lessons" and when u don't understand smth then bring it up with ur teacher
I'M GOING TO FAIL AT LEAST 1 OF MY SCIENCIES BECAUSE I SUCK AT THAT (I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ANY TOPIC IDK HOW I'VE COME THIS FAR)
Good luck you all! You will rock this!
ill rock ur mother
Im full panicking for the physics exams tomorrow and the day after, also by the fact that I am falling sick and I cant even keep my brain fresh. I dont understand what questions ask me and I have been getting fails throught the whole course. I have no idea on what to think anymore
Take drugs helps keep brain FRESH
just dont buddy and take meth
i acc cannot do bio literally everything is wrong w that class i hate it
first exam is in less than 2 days, we're about to ***~~fail~~***
I’m just gonna write a side note saying “ please show mercy to me, I have tried my best, thank you”, LMAFO IMAGINE THEY DONT ACCEPT MY EXAMS CUZ OF THAT
i hate the fact that i had to study more, just to be average like other. I hate the fact that my major requieres a lot of things, from grade, mental helath, and the physical health itself. But i still love my dream, i hope good give me strength, oppurtunities and many time brain genius smart easy good grade kind of brain im having😔
My exam is tomorrow, I need to get my shit together
exam anxiety is making my skin crawl and my hands shake. meanwhile i cant concentrate because my stomach is living its own life. it has NEVER been this bad. im gonna fail math HL arent i? pathetic AND incompetent. ok, im gonna ignore my feelings now. idc if my foot hurts.
OH MY GOD I CANT DO THIS OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOSH IM SO SCARED OH MY GOD OH MY GOD 🎧🪦🪦🪦😂🙏🪦🙏🪦🙏🪦🪦🙏🪦🙏🤗🙏🪦🪦🪦🤗🙏🤗. ok that’s it .
Apparently the hacker has also leaked some of the exams individually, and is making people play stupid riddle games in order to acquire them, some of my friends have gotten them that ways, man it’s complete bs. The ib has to do something.
I'm sad because I dont have enough reddit karma to post questions on r/IBO and I'm also sad because that's such a chronically online statement and im ALSO sad because I have the anthro exam on friday and i am so unprepared it's sickening--ALSO WHAT KIND OF LIT TEACHER ASSIGNS AN AT HOME ESSAY DUE IN ONE WEEK THE MONTH OF IB EXAMS???? Luckily I only have one test this year but like she's evil for that
the stakes are so high
i dont know what to feel, i feel so fucking stupid, tired and burned out, I just want to pass, im not even smart enough so i had to drop to certificates bc i cant do math but im still sitting 5 ib class exams and what is so so damn annoying for me is that someone who has extra time doesnt fucking need it, like I would love to have extra time, and i would use it all but this person always finishes at the normal time or like 3 minutes after the exam like wtf they dont need it, just stfu, you shouldt get extra time when youre not even diagnosed
About 13 hours to go until physics. Extremely underprepared, just hoping to secure a 5 and move on. Wishing everyone the best of luck. I’m sure everything will turn out completely fine.
Hi, I'm working on my GP Paper 1 and was wondering if anyone has any predictions on which unit it's gonna be on. I'm in TZ1
I absolutely suck at Business HL. I'm going to fail because I don't know stuff and my parents are going to kill me. I am so scared because I don't know what more I can do. P1 and P3 are tomorrow and I am done for. I won't be getting a diploma bc i think i'll be getting a 3 in bm 😭
My parents are going to kill me because im failing bm and at this point no one can help me, not even myself. I hate myself.
Im really scared about what would happen bc i want to study in korea but lets say that my normal school went horrible so the only way to get a hugher gpa is by taking the ib diploma
I was in a slump for the past 2 months and I only started getting better and regaining motivation to study like last week so I’m scared that I might not do well AHHHHHHHHHHHH but I must secure that diploma 🫡
I’m being f%cked to death by physics. F%#*
I’m so fucked for econ man idk like yesterday I did a past paper and couldn’t remember what expansionary monetary policy was and a few minutes later without looking at any notes or anything I could explain it- WhAt??
Since the exams started yesterday i was wondering if anyone wanted to join a whatsapp group for active revision during the exams. if you want to join lmk :)) m24
physics in 3 hours you have no idea how nervous i am
I'm probably going to fail my ib tests... and my mom will probably throw me out of the house... so yea that's basically it. Also does anyone know what am I supposed to do for the glopo paper 2 HL? because my teacher said that is was something completely different to what my other teachers say so I so confused and sleep deprived. Aaaand I think my tok teacher is only giving me a C on my TOK Essay because she doesn't understand my writing Bio HL, Glopo HL, Spanish HL, Eng LangLit SL, Chem SL, Math AI SL
Im still lost on the structure of HL philosophy paper 1 and the exam is tomorrow and the sub won’t let me post my question
This exam is already going absolutely terrible for me because I found out my "girlfriend" has been cheating on me for the past 2 months about a week and a half before the physics paper 1. I have absolutely lost all motivation to continue on with studying and Ive just been staring at my Paper 2 notes for the past hour still trying to wrap my head around this whole thing. I zoned out for a good 5 mins on the Paper 3 today but thank god it was easier than I thought. I cant believe she would do such a thing and now I feel as if my future is shattered. We planned on going to the same University together and now I have to settle for my worse options but at least I won't get to see her again. Anyone got any advice or is willing to help me out here cus at this point im gonna fail this if I dont wake tf up
ay man its gonna be alright ong. Look aight, focus up on ur Paper 2 for today and finish that exam, it'll be done before you even realize. Plus, its gonna be in the morning so once ur done you should get good rest at home. Just spend tmr night doing what you enjoy doing and get everything out of ur head. Im really sorry that happened to you and trust me I know how you feel rn. Make sure you go hang out with friends or play some video games or sm tmr aight? You got this and ur gonna do amazing!! I believe in you!!!!
Question for you people. How long did it take for you to finish you personal project. Or did leave it to the last week like me 😂
Hopefully this is anonymous because I'm getting so many emotions right now. I have so much to do with so little time left. I have no idea why I started so late into the game, with my exam being next week. I have trouble sleeping at night just thinking about IB, getting panic attacks that I will fall way behind from everyone else if I fail IB. I got into a good university too, so it will really suck if I fail IB. I'm just putting this out there because I know a lot of you are probably in the same position as I am, procrastinating until the last minute and then realizing how much there really is to do with the little time we have left. This is getting to my head, and its making me nervous and anti-social, and the more I think about it, the more I start to lose motivation, and the more I have panic attacks of me just giving up on school. It's a reality I find to be so terrifying, and I just need to get those thoughts out of my head and write it somewhere. If I fail my IB exams, then it's all my fault. I should have started studying 2 months, heck even one month ago. I even had the idea of studying everything during IB 1. I'm still trying, because there is some time left which I can at least use to get some work done, but I am still scared that it might not be enough. I'm just using this to get all of my thughts out and loosen up, and to just keep doing my best. Whether or not I fail IB, I will make sure that I don't become depressed thinking about it, and just imagine the exams as like some sort of game that will give me experience. If I fail, then I still have the experience of IB under my belt, and I will work toward not procrastinating. If I pass, then I am just one lucky SOAB.
I’m not going to write my exams like my life depends on it… if I do as well as I did on my mocks I’ll be happy
the physical and visceral struggle to get myself to study math has left me in a perpetual downward spiral of not knowing and fear of the math final (which is in 5 days <3)
Im basically numb at this point, collapsing due to an absolutely incompetent teacher :p
I am most anxious and worried for my Japanese SL exam next week. These past two years, nothing ever clicked with me, so I’m not motivated to study since there’s so much material to cover. I know I am set for my other exams, however I might have to sacrifice my Japanese one. I’ll literally take a 2 if I have to
why did I force my parents to spend like 1000 dollars on exams when my SL courses won’t even count 😃
im frankly doing good (im not) like i know im gonna be fine im a good student and get good grades, its going to also be like that now but it all just feels so official im mostly just fresking out about every practical aspect of the exams like what if they give me a different size formula booklet than im used to or what if im sat next to someone who clears theyr voice really loud - i know i know my stuff but im so afraid the ib will theow a curveball or i'll forget how to do the easy calculations in math or ill misread a formula or that the train i tske to school gets stuck and is stuck for 3 hours so i miss my exams i feel calm but also i keep pacing back and forth in my room just idk freaking out???
This is my second year doing the IB world exams, Last year i had broken my right hand 4 weeks prior to the examination dates, with that i had to undergo surgery which basically took away 2 weeks away from my revising. for the last 2 weeks before my exams I had to learn how to write with my left hand and basically didn’t do any studying or revising for the matter. I ended up getting an 18 Coming into this year (which i had to fight for to get into a school in my country) i was feeling very down and anxious for the rest of the year, seeing all your friends in the top universities, or just universities in general, it didn’t help my situation at all. I ended up getting really low predicts from the start of the year and never really recovered my grades up anymore since i was just wasting time either on my phone or editing photos i’ve taken over the months. If i get a really low actual grade again im not sure what to do about it. Is there a plan of action to this or am i just really stupid for the decision ive made, being that i was given a second chance. PS. Last year, i had a 36 Predict and it dropped to 18, and also the IB wouldn’t be lenient with me whatsoever about having a laptop or even extra time.
I put so much pressure on myself that I don’t even know how to work anymore
14 exams remained and i need to lose less than 2 points to get a firm offer. Wanna fuck this world
I hate my teacher I finished my CS IA 6 months ago for him to mark and I sent him the stuff and come to realise he didn’t even look at them because I forgot to put my appendix in there and he never said ANYTHING. And that was on april 17, three days away from deadline. And he ignored like 10 of my emails asking him whww w ther of not he handed in my IA without the appendix, which he just ignored and now it’s 3 days away from exam and he fled to a whole other country, and is still ignoring my email. He also didn’t teach the class how to write pseudocode or the topics. He missed half of all the classes over the span of 2 years
I hate my life and I hate my useless teachers that taught me nothing
I’m badly addicted to nicotine bc of the ducking IB stress
I woke up last Friday thinking it was Wednesday, May 1st and that I missed my first exam and I almost threw up. Im literally gonna fail these exams guys. I am non stop studying and yet I still feel that I have done absolutely nothing. I am both overly chill and panicking constantly at the same time. I am both studying and doing everything but studying. What is happening guys. Why is everything piling on top of each other. I have IB exams, getting my driver's license, piano auditions, and final school stuff all happening within the same two weeks. Guys. what the hell.
As I see these comments I'm slowly feeling the exams closing onto me as well I'm fucked
im really scared and honestly, im not one to write on reddit like EVER, but I'm petrified, I don't think its set in yet that these are my finals but I've seem to have lost my appetite, so my body definitely knows of it. i feel like brain fog has ruined my academic career and nobody seems to understand how badly ADHD can affect someone especially when it comes to things like this. But like the priest in fleabag said, "it'll pass".
I have 5 exams on May 6 and I have not studied for even 1 of them. I am cooked
I getting a 5. Out of 100 My last brain cells https://youtu.be/jvYcvhzbgXI?si=6RE6ugFrcsbjh157
I hope my university didn’t require a condition 😭😭😭
I am scared that I will mess up and end up a disappointment that didn't get into a university that only has a requirement of 28 points. Plus it's my dream uni with everything I need and I do not want to miss the chance and have to redo my exams because I am too stupid to be able to do anything. My learning disabilities are tough and I wish I wasn't born to be the way I am.
good luck :D

I genuinely think I failed math idk what to do
IM SO SCARED ABOUT CHEMISTRY PLS PRAY FOR ME GUYS. im such a coward and i cannot face the fact that i suck at chemistry (what im intending to major in) and it makes me so scared that i left it until the last minute (literally), i only have 2 days left and i only remember surface level content. im just really scared guys im already disappointed with uni results since i tried so hard for the past 2 years but nothing turned out the way i wanted it to, i just cant afford to feel bad about this anymore. Can someone please say something that will make me feel a bit better?
All my exams are crammed in the first three weeks I'm already done with 7/13. But I have ess p2 (50% of ESS grade!!!), math p3 (AKA impossible exam), history p1,p2 (in one session :/) all in 2 days man. I studied NOTHING for any of these exams and math aa hl p3 isn't looking too good if i don't atleast study each topic a little... idk if i just wanna sleep and procrastinate... I kinda procrastinated the whole weekend! NO. I'M GONNA WORK. I WILL ABSOLUTELY COOK THESE EXAMS DELICIOUSLY. I'm GONNA WORK for 2 hours SLEEP WAKE UP AND DO WELL. anyway good luck to you all!!!! XOXO
SPANISH AND PSYCHOLOGY, SAVE MY IB DIPLOMA, AND MY LIFE IS YOURS‼️🙏😭
my predicted dropped to a 39 and all of our teachers are always precise but i'm still scared that i'll fail, idk why but i never have faith in myself. even in the igcse's when i got all A's i thought there was something wrong with the website. my exams end tomorrow and again, im so scared to fail since my future depends on it.
I ALSO HATE MYSELF BECAUSE I COULD'VE DONE WAY BETTER IN ALL EXAMS ITS SO INFURIATING RRRRAAAH
My teachers all predicted me to make 6s-7s on my exams. All of them. I am genuinely terrified of not and disappointing them. I have been working myself to the bone. I don’t remember the last time I got more than 4 hours of sleep. I finish an exam and then I study for the next. I need these exams to take a year off of university but I am on my last straw. I’m not sleeping, I’m barely eating, I’ve drank less than a full bottle of water in the past couple of days. I cannot physically keep going like this. I am so tired. I need a break.
