At the beginning of the year I was a little sceptical about the IB, but now I realize that it was one of the best decisions of my life. I've changed a lot during this year and it was partly because of the course. I feel that I've become a better person and that I've improved skills that will be very important for the future. I think the IB will make a difference in my future.

O IB permitiu me abrir novos horizontes e uma porta para o meu futuro. Foi um ano, sem dúvida, de muito trabalho, de altos e baixos, e de uma grande mudança, onde não só alunos como também professores se colocaram várias vezes à prova. A verdade é que tudo isto me ajudou não só a crescer a nível académico como também a nível pessoal. As experiências que nos têm sido proporcionadas motivam-me todos os dias a continuar a trabalhar e, de certa forma, a lutar por aquilo que são os meus objetivos futuros. Não me arrependo, de todo, da escolha que fiz e apesar de estar nervosa para o ano que vem, tenho a certeza de que com força de vontade tudo é possível.

Este ano serviu-me de exemplo para o tipo de ensino do IB. Foram-me esclarecidas todas as dúvidas quanto ao programa em si e fiquei com uma perspetiva clara de como será o meu futuro académico. Durante este ano foram realizadas várias atividades que me ajudaram a conhecer tanto os professores, como os colegas que me vão acompanhar nos próximos dois anos, o que acredito que me deixará mais à vontade no futuro.

Foi um ano completamente diferente do “costume”, mas todos nós pudemos experienciar novos desafios que, na minha opinião, nos ajudaram a melhorar certas competências bastante importantes. Acho também que tivemos a devida preparação para entrar no IB DP.
