  1. International Baccalaureate2010-2011 Registration For rising sophomores

  2. “Be motivated! If not, you will struggle throughout the year! The workload increases from freshman to sophomore year and as long as they are working hard and have decent study skills, they will be fine. Also time management is another big thing! I played a varsity sport and kept up my grades but only because I managed my time! I made sure I finished my homework first! It is possible!! One more thing: if they thought freshman year was hard then sophomore year just gets harder so maybe IB is not for them.”
