As a teacher, I DO think a lot of pressure is put on IB kids, and often, it's not worth it. Yes, IB kids have the highest GPAs, but they also have such rigorous requirements that they miss out on a lot of "typical high school" activities - such as newspaper, yearbook, TV production, debate, etc.
Yep... it effectively killed my high school's yearbook and newspaper production classes.
