6 Our thoughts about IB at Sannarpsgymnasiet The IB is a very broad program with lot of learning possibilities. The fact that it is in English makes it the perfect opportunity for international studies after getting the IB-diploma. Djem, Dp15 "Undervisningen på IB är väldigt personlig, lärarna har bra koll på en. Förutom all kunskap jag får har jag dessutom blivit effektiv och bra på att planera." Clara, DP14 Man behöver absolut inte vara en supermänniska för att klara IB. I PreDP ser lärarna till att du är väl förberedd för programmet. Att gå IB ger mig tid att utvecklas och smälta mina kunskaper. Edith Almqvist, DP15 Our time at Sannarpsgymnasiet One of the best part of IB at Sannarpsgymnasiet is the teachers. They really want to help you and they are very committed to make you perform the very best you can. Another great part is the critical thinking I have developed during these years. Sofia Karlborg, DP12, graduated 2015 IB has given me a kick start for my further studies. Especially it has given me an advantage in actually studying in English. IB at Sannarpsgymnasiet is a great program since it combines various ways of learning. Victoria Zeybrandt, DP12, graduated 2015 At Sannarpsgymnasiet, the teachers adjust their teaching to the prior knowledge of the students. The teachers really help everyone to succeed. Erik Golovtchenko, Dp14

7 IB på Sannarp var mitt första steg ut i den akademiska världen. Att ha gått IB har underlättat livet enormt, allt känns lätt som en plätt. Jag har läst klart psykologiprogrammet på Kingston University och har påbörjat min doktorsexamen i sport- och neuropsykologi. Att ha nått så här långt är IB:s förtjänst. Utan det akademiska stödet från IB hade detta aldrig hänt. Sök IB ifall du vill fortsätta studera efter gymnasiet. Du kommer inte att ångra dig!
