Pierre Rheeder Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 I am starting the IBDP in August and I have decided to have Math, Physics and Computer Science as my HL's and English, French and Phsychology as my SL's. Will this be too much work or should I keep it this way? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanda_sorata Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Looks good. You'll eventually find yourself doing Math HL stuff for 50% of your studying time, and other 50% for your other subjects. What are your current grades in these subjects? Do you take IBMYB or IGCSE?

My friend takes exactly these HLs and he really studies half the amount of time that I do (and I do an easier combination of only two sciences HL!). He's much more 'gifted' in physics and maths, so he doesn't struggle much with the content of the syllabus and is able to follow in class easily. Staying organised and having folders where you store your notes is key. If you do that then you're good to go! I'd perhaps advise going for 4HLs at first considering it is harder to foresee how things will go. Personally, I did 4HLs (with maths HL), and I only really dropped maths HL in October of my second year. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre Rheeder Posted May 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 I’ve decided to take physics sl and psychology hl instead. Thanks for the advice👍 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
