A:  Having a better understanding of own discipline advantage and trying to avoid the disadvantage is necessary as the college matriculation is selective. A wise and scientific combination of IBDP course selection will help a lot. For example, if one student cannot decide which subject should be higher level, since all of his subjects are weak. One smart choice for the students to choose is putting the Group 1 and Group 2 into Higher Level. It is hard to get high marks on humanities, but it is also hard for the students to get low marks as long as the students are working hard with a diligent attitude, enough and decent class participation and stable assignment qualities.

Q: Are all the entry requirements in the world the same?

A: Not exactly. As the institutions in the US measure the prospective students in a more holistic way and offer them general education in their first two school years and allow them to change their mind about majors frequently, so the IB course selection for US schools is much more flexible. On the contrary, it is hard for the students to change majors in the UK universities. Therefore, to ensure the admitted students could survive in their future college years, the IB course selections should match the majors the student is hoping to apply (eg. if one student wants to choose history as his/her future major, and most schools require the students to take History HL as a must )meanwhile, the UK schools set a very clear entry requirement on the relevant courses. All the offers are conditional. If the DP candidate cannot meet the requirement of the courses the school asks, the offer will have the risk to be withdrawn.

A:  Language and science courses are always fundamental. Without the support of language, the students cannot survive in the college when asked to do the writings. Science courses can help students to cultivate their thinking ways in a more logic style like maths is always necessary. Choose the course that matches the major you determine to apply and then get a decent score on each individual course.

A: As the offer in UK college application system is conditional, failure to receive the IB diploma will lead to the withdrawal of the offer. Keeping hard working in the senior year even after having been admitted is very important.
