The IB Diploma consists of 6 vital subjects and in my humble opinion the importance of each and every one of them depends on the individual who is doing the course, as we all have different opinions in this entry I shall be talking about what I feel are the most important subjects that I take, in the IB diploma.
1- Physics-This is the the study of matter, energy, and the interaction between them, to me this is the most important subject that I take, due to the fact that it helps you have a better understanding of what is around you, enables you to acquire a knowledge of how the universe actually started, the discoveries made by Physics were arguably a catalyst in the growth of technology and nearly all fields of engineering there is, require a working knowledge of Physics.
2- ITGS- Technology is growing and has taken the world by storm, having a working knowledge of technology at one point will be essential, almost everything in this day and age has an aspect of ITGS in it. Having basic computer skills, are essential to virtually an job these days.
3- Mathematics- If one experts in this subject, it equips them with a uniquely powerful set of tools to understand and change the world. It is a universal part of human culture. It is the tool and
language of engineering and other sciences – physics,
computing,etc. It helps us recognise patterns and to acquire a better understanding of the world around us. Mathematics plays a vital, role in several aspects of modern life.
4- Chemistry- EVERYTHING around us is is made from chemicals, Chemistry is an essential part of our life's if one has a good understanding of chemistry it can help us do things such as pick out the correct medications, if we are sick, understand the food we eat and beauty products we utilize.
5- English- The knowledge of English is essential, though I do not see it as important as the ones above as we have forms of communications in other languages. That being said, it is also the most required international language of communication and it helps people from different parts of the world to have a common understanding.
6- French- French is not really required, in my opinion, as I see no need in having to learn another language! Though with that being said a 2nd Language is essential to complete the IB Diploma, also it is extremely useful in helping you get in to university and getting a job these days, in most cases, requires you to know at least 2 languages.
