Anything you''d like to say to a future IB students?

　　You will learn how to appreciate your breaks. To me, IB isn''t harder than what I was used to before but rather, it is just more intense in terms of workload (which I''ll assume that you''ve already heard from the IB''ers at your school). Your marks may flucuate at the beginning due to the heavier workload and higher expectations but they shouldn''t drastically change in the long run. Also, depending on your work ethic, the hours of sleep you get will be in decline the more you procrastinate.

　　I remember when I was in IB1 ... I could do most of my assignments the day before the deadline and still get an excellent mark but as the year went on, I found myself sleeping at 11:00 ... 11:30 ... 12:00 ... 1:00... 2:30am. Of course, I eventually learned that that was not working for me and I had to manage my time more wisely but even so, I still catch myself staying up pretty late - not only because of homework, but just because of habit.

　　During the summer between IB1 and IB2 (well, I''m not sure how that would work for the Nov. candidates), try to get ahead in your subjects - even if it is just a miniscule amount. If you are not busy during the summer, try to get some reading done for your Group 4 subject (History in your case) and your Extended essay. I only wish I had the time to get a head start on my EE during the summer because it is due in a month and homework has been piling up lately --> More stress, less sleep.

　　I haven''t got anything else to say right now. Use your time wisely and importantly, don''t let IB run most of your life. Of course you''re going to invest more time into schoolwork but remember, these are your last years of high school. If you spend most of your time just studying and doing homework, you''re obviously missing out on something. Yes, there''s university but there may be friends you''re going to miss ... family that you''re going to move away from.

　　So, manage your time wisely and you''ll be fine ... I suppose

　　你要學(xué)會(huì)休息，對(duì)我來(lái)講，IB課程并不必我參加的其它課程困難，但是時(shí)間卻比其它課程要緊迫，作業(yè)量很大。我想你從IB學(xué)校也聽(tīng)說(shuō)過(guò)這個(gè)了。開(kāi)始時(shí)，由于學(xué)習(xí)壓力和期望值的原因，你的成績(jī)可能波動(dòng)較大，并且長(zhǎng)期不會(huì)發(fā)生巨變。當(dāng)然，成績(jī)的改變?nèi)�決于你的付出，你睡眠的時(shí)間可能被一再壓縮。

　　我記得在IB課程的第一學(xué)期，我總是能夠提前完成作業(yè)，但是隨著時(shí)間的流逝，我睡眠的時(shí)間一拖再拖，一開(kāi)始是11點(diǎn)，然后11點(diǎn)半，12點(diǎn)，1點(diǎn)，2點(diǎn)半。當(dāng)然，我較終能夠控制住了時(shí)間，而不是并自己的學(xué)習(xí)任務(wù)左右。至此，我睡眠時(shí)間一直很晚，不僅因?yàn)樽鳂I(yè)多的原因，也是因?yàn)槲乙呀?jīng)養(yǎng)成了晚睡的習(xí)慣。

　　在IB1升至IB2的那個(gè)暑假，嘗試預(yù)習(xí)你的科目，即使只能少量預(yù)習(xí)，如果你在這個(gè)暑假不是太忙，那么嘗試讀一些歷史，為第四課的學(xué)習(xí)做準(zhǔn)備，盡可能的擴(kuò)展閱讀，那個(gè)夏天你有一個(gè)月的時(shí)間，所以給自己一些壓力，少睡會(huì)，你的成績(jī)會(huì)提高很多的。

　　控制好你的時(shí)間，這是我較想告訴你的。不要讓IB浪費(fèi)你太多的生命。當(dāng)然這是你高中的較后一學(xué)期，你理應(yīng)該努力學(xué)習(xí)的。但是，如果你被IB的課程作業(yè)所拖累，你將失去更多，友誼，家庭的美好時(shí)光將一去不復(fù)返。

　　較后，我認(rèn)為IB學(xué)習(xí)的過(guò)程中，管理好時(shí)間，你將會(huì)很快樂(lè)。
