I’m a senior. My school’s way behind, so the only thing juniors have are the english world lit papers and the english presentation. Everything else is for senior year (for HL).

At first, I was going to write the history paper on Chinese gov’t’s control of the media during the Cultural Rev. Then I realized that I would need primary sources, but 1) I can’t read Chinese, 2) I would be unwilling to try to find translations of Chinese newspapers from the 50s/60s. (70s?)

So… I decided to do my project on reconstruction of S. Africa after the fall of apartheid, and then my history teacher tells me that anything that happened within the last 10 years isn’t considered history. Great.

Have people been offering to buy IB papers in your school? So far, I’ve heard an offer of 40 dollars for a TOK paper (relatively cheap b/c it’s most BS).
