Hey guys, I'm an IGCSE student who is doing English, Maths, Hindi, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Economics, and ICT. I'm hoping to go into video game design but I'm ok with keeping my options open within the entertainment industry. These are the subjects I'm planning to take for IB.
- English: I love English, especially writing, so I'm taking HL.
- Maths HL/SL: not sure which.
- French ab initio: I'm really bad at Hindi, and I like the idea of learning a new language, so I'm doing French.
Other options I'm considering (in order of how much I'd like to take them):
Group 3
- Economics / Business Studies: I like Economics, but I despise the maths part and the graphs and stuff. I've also heard that this part is the bulk of IB Eco, whereas Business Studies is less maths-based. So I might opt for BS instead.
Groups 4 and 6
- Computer Science: I haven't taken this in years, and I have absolutely zero programming experience, but I know that it's critical to get into the gaming industry, so I'll most likely take this.
- ITGS: It sounds similar to ICT, except with a subjective focus and looking at ethics and things like that. I enjoyed ICT, but I'm not sure if I'll take this.
- Chemistry / Psychology: I don't really know much about Psychology. My feelings on Chemistry are ambivalent, but I'd rather not take it.
- Visual Arts: Again I don't know anything about the subject, and if it's about things like painting, I will probably not take it.
What do you guys think?
