There are about 9 weeks to the start of exams and I work that to be 1.5 weeks per subject. At this point DS seem to think that he has got ample time. I have not seen him do any past paper yet. I have just enquired about doing past papers and I got an Ok grunt for a reply.

IB 2017 parents how are you doing? DS has almost completed his exams, 2 weeks break then Spanish and it will all be over.

He needs to find a job now to fill his time.

Just Chemistry and French left now. Fingers crossed these will be ok. I think the first HL Maths was hardest so far.

How is your son finding them ?

He claimed that it has been good so far. He said he did not complete a maths paper 2 question and he made another minor mistake on another question.

I don't think that he is very motivated for the Spanish, so I am on his case trying to encourage him to give it just 1 more week. We don't want to deal with any regret come 6th July.

No - and that is the problem, they need points from all the exams including the std level ones they are not so keen on. All the best!

DS has now completed all exams. I do hope that he (we) will be celebrating in July.
He turns 18 in 2 weeks time.
