Hi all,
My son is in year 10 and his school does not have a sixth form so we are looking around (in London). He is a good all rounder and not too clear which direction he is heading in - likes Science and Maths but doing very well in humanities too. Re. the IB, given you have to choose 3 HL subjects does this provide any additional flexibility with Uni requirements? So for example, if he decided he wanted to do Chemistry at Uni presumably he would have to have done Maths and Chem at HL if the Uni requires A levels in both. No further Maths through the IB so that would be an additional A level requirement for Maths at some Unis...
I am just trying to get my head round it all. I am very much in favour of a breadth of education but I am just trying to work out if it would provide him with a wider range of options kept open for Uni...Given IB SLs do not seem to feature in Uni requirements I am thinking possibly not...
Advice appreciated! Thanks all.
