ab1234 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Hi, So I know that IB requires you to have a balanced minimum of 50 creativity, 50 service, and 50 action hours as a minimum. I ended up having 162 creativity, 26 service, and 663 action hours. My IB coordinator said that I should be fine considering that I have way more than enough action and creativity. Am I going to be okay? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosalina Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 You no longer have to have 50 hours in Creativity, Activity and Service. Instead, you have to fulfill certain criteria with your activities. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
violentrabbit Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 (edited) Oh I think my CAS coordinator just told us to have a mandated 50 hours each because they still say it should be "about 150 hours" Thanks I got my explanation from:http://paxonsas-ib.weebly.com/what-is-cas.html Edited June 13, 2016 by violentrabbit Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosalina Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Yep, they do end up being around 150 hours. The criteria seemed to be designed with that in mind. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
