Can you explain to me the difference between a Higher Level (HL) and a Standard Level (SL) subject? How did you decide which ones to pick?
In your own words, what makes the IB DP different from the regular national curriculum classes you might have taken before?
Have you seen the General Regulations or the Academic Honesty Policy? Do you know what the consequences are if you forget to cite a source in an assignment?
Let’s talk about CAS. Do you understand that it is not just 'logging hours'? Can anyone give me an example of a CAS experience they are excited to start?
The Extended Essay (EE) is a big project (4,000 words). Has the school explained the timeline to you? Do you know how you will be matched with a supervisor?
Have you had a taste of Theory of Knowledge (TOK) yet? How is it different from a normal subject class?
The DP is famous for being hard work. If you feel overwhelmed or stressed next year, who is the first person at school you would talk to?
Do you feel you have a voice here? If the students have a problem with a schedule or a facility, is there a way for you to tell the leadership (Pak Rais or Ibu Lita)?
How often do you meet with your University Counselor (Pak Aksa)? Do you have a plan for what comes after GDA?
The IB talks a lot about the 'Learner Profile' (like being Open-Minded, Reflective, or Communicators). Which one of these traits do you think GDA does a really good job of teaching you?
Which trait do you think you personally need to work on the most before you graduate?
No "Right" Answers: Please make sure that this is not an exam. If you don't know the answer (e.g., "We haven't chosen our EE topics yet"), that is a perfectly fine answer.
Not to be shy about your grammar. Communication is more important than perfection. If you get stuck, you can help each other translate.
