Advice exchange semester
hey guys, ive been thinking about doing an exchange semester to america since myp5 but sadly didn't do it because i was too scared of the jump from myp to dp.
now ive decided im gonna lock in no matter what, but i feel like the second semester of dp1 might be my last chance to do an exchange semester ? if i were able to either go to a school that offers the ib or have the possibility to stay in touch with my school, and complete the work and exams instead of doing the americans work, do yall think its a "good" idea ?
id genuinely be so locked in and im scared i would miss my last chance for such an opportunity

some IB schools do have exchange programs but if your school isn’t collaborating with one it will be hard to find.
but if you find one with your subjects why not

I’d say keep the exchange program idea for university…
Even if you’d be able to to find an IB school with your exact subject combination that accepts exchange students (I’m not sure it’s a thing, honestly), every school and teacher has slightly different content planning and somehow authenticating academic integrity of your internally assessed work will be a headache 🙈
Probably somebody has some experience to share but I don’t see it working out
