i'm not doing well in math sl- i'm in DP1 and i have a 4. tbh i didnt study for math at all.
i want to go to a liberal arts college in the US, im from nepal and i do the IB at a UWC school.
solely for US college admissions, should i drop to math studies and opt for a better total IB grade, or should i settle for a 4 or max 5 in math SL? will colleges prefer a better overall grade or a math sl base? (im planning on pursuing law or government, international relations or sth similar, not much in the math field).
Replies to: MATH SL TO MATH STUDIES? PLEASEEE HELP
If a college were to care that much about your IB scores, they would notice the deliberate change from math SL to the easier math studies. Unless it's a detriment to your GPA, which I doubt, then I wouldn't consider switching, but that's just me.
You can switch to Math Studies, which is similar to "math for general education" in the US. What are your other subjects?
Economics, Geography, English A Lang & Lit HL
Biology, Chinese ab initio and Math SL
