I was happy to receive my IB results, which turned out rather nicely:
Higher Maths: 6
Higher Biology: 6
Higher Chemistry: 6
Standard English A1: 5
Standard German B: 5
Standard History: 7
Bonus: 1
Overall: 36
Where a 7 is the highest grade possible. Not bad, huh? Thus I'm going to Nottingham to study Computer Science. Watch out everyone in Nottingham!

They're good results, MaW. Good luck in Nottingham!
Oh yeah, IRL I am Jim. Remember? Probably not.

Yes I think I do remember. Vaguely. A poet, right?
Yes... a poet.

My sisters boyfriend is in the IB program here in the States. And I was almost in it, too. But I decided not to cause I heard that the homework is a pain in the arse. Anyway, congrats on your scores!! And good luck in Nottingham!!

Yeah, the homework is a pain in the arse, but I got through that. You just have to make sure you do it and don't leave your World Lit assignments to the week before the posting date... that happens to too many people at my school.
But I'm at Nottingham now and so far the luck seems to be holding out. Don't ask me why, but it is.

It's a combination of ToK and the extended essay - I got a B for ToK and a C for my extended essay so I ended up with only one puny bonus point, where you can get three maximum. It's a shame, that.

Mathematical Methods for the Generation of Sierpinski Gaskets. I really should have done something else, but... this was good enough in the end. It got me into my first choice University, so I'm not complaining.
