Is it possible? HELP!!


Question Posted Sunday April 17 2011, 10:28 pm

OK I am 15/f and am just entering my first year in high school. I am already nervous as it is, but I entered the IB program (International Baccalaureate), which is suppose to be faster pace. I need a challenge so I thought it would be good. I have also just got a job, I work four hours on school days twice a week, my question is... Is it possible to hold down a job in this program while still keeping up with my studies? I am a straight A student and would like to keep it that way. Any advice helps thanks!!

Honestly, you won't know until you find out.

The IB program, at least at my high school, was pretty intensive. They assigned alot more work, I was in a different advanced program and had more free time than I knew what to do with because we got about a third as many things to do outside the classroom in an average week.

Eight hours a week, you might be able to do that. How fast do you absorb information? Are you one of those people who almost never studies for tests? Or do you put alot of work into making straight As? I worked, but I was also able to accomplish almost all of my schoolwork during school hours.

All you can do is see. If your grades start to slip lose the job. IB can help you get into some really good colleges, so just make sure you focus well on that.
