How can I improve my IB grades?

TOEFL scores are required, but SAT scores are not necessarily required: 1. TOEFL scores are required for non-native English speaking students to apply for undergraduate studies in the United States; 2. At universities that accept IB scores as an application, you can submit IB scores instead of SAT scores; 3. However, for some schools that do not recognize IB scores, SAT scores must be submitted according to the requirements of the school; 4. It is not excluded that some American schools do not require SAT scores and IB scores, but these scores are ranked relatively low; The International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IB) is a two-year program designed by the International Baccalaureate Organization for high school students.

The IB curriculum system not only has compatibility with the mainstream education curriculum systems of other countries in the world, but also has its own uniqueness under the development of its own educational philosophy. Students take the same textbooks in the IB system and take the global screening test when they graduate, so that the academic standards of IB students around the world are unified, and the diploma is recognized as the highest level in the world.

The goal of the IB education is to provide students with the skills they need to survive, learn and work, specifically internally, personally, emotionally, and socially.

From here, we can see the difference between this educational concept and the traditional Chinese education concept. Although more and more schools are advocating the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, art and labor, it is difficult to really implement it in action and daily education. "Examination, examination, the teacher's magic weapon, the lifeblood of the student" is not something that can be broken overnight.

The concepts advocated by IB, such as personal improvement or personal and social communication, are difficult to express in an intuitive number, unlike grades. This kind of time-consuming, laborious and difficult to quantify is not in the current situation, most schools do not have the conditions to do it.

The IB curriculum is divided into SL Standard Level and the more challenging Higher Level courses. The IB requires students to take a minimum of six courses + Theory of Knowledge, with at least three of these six courses being HL. In addition to the academic requirements for students, students who choose the IB Diploma are required to complete 150 hours of practical social activities (CSC hours) over two years.

If you don't have a comparable level of foreign language skills and academic course foundation, it is almost equivalent to tossing yourself, after all, the requirements of the IB course are relatively high, and it is a comprehensive requirement.

Such as serving in the community, nursing homes, kindergartens, volunteering, talent shows, teaching skills, etc.

Good question. However, that Dan Nai Cha project is mainly established and developed in Europe, and if you use foreign languages to learn the model, it will have gold content. If you learn it in Chinese, it's basically useless!
