4. WHAT IS IB DIPLOMA PROGRAM?
The Diploma Programme (DP) is a challenging curriculum designed by the International Baccalaureate (IB) for students in the last two years of high school.
IBDP education:
focuses on learners,
develops effective approaches to teaching and learning
increase understanding of languages and cultures, and explore globally significant ideas and issues,
offers a curriculum that is broad and balanced, conceptual and connected.

5. What does IBDP curriculum contain?
Six subjects
Core
Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS)
Extended Essay (EE)
Theory of Knowledge (TOK)
Three subjects at Standard Level
Three subjects at High Level
Two years
Diploma Programme students study six subjects (three at standard level and three at higher level) over two years and complete three additional requirements: the theory of knowledge (TOK), the extended essay (EE) and at least 150 hours of CAS—creativity, activity and service tasks outside of the classroom.

6. IB Diploma
The IB diploma is awarded based on performance across all parts of the DP.
Each subject is graded 1–7, with 7 being the highest grade.
These grades are also used as points (that is, 7 points for a grade 7, 6 points for a grade 6, and so on) in determining if the diploma can be awarded.
TOK and the EE are graded A–E, with A being the highest grade. These two grades are then combined in the diploma points matrix to contribute between 0 and 3 points to the total
CAS is not assessed but must be completed in order to pass the diploma.
The overall maximum points from subject grades, TOK and the EE is therefore 45: ((6 × 7) + 3)
The minimum threshold for the award of the diploma is 24 points. If a candidate scores less than 24 points, the diploma is not awarded.

The examples given are intended to serve as a general guideline in selecting IB subjects. Very competitive universities will require the most rigorous course combinations. When selecting subjects, however, one must keep in mind one’s own ability in the subject.

14. Principles and Practice at Druga gimnazija Sarajevo
Minimum number of students per group/subject is five
Maximum number of students per group/ subject is eighteen
If the group exceeds allowed numbers, students will be grouped based on their overall success and target subject results. The others choose the other subject of interest.
Students have an opportunity to make changes to their subject choices, and levels, in early September but only if the timetable, and class size allow.
Be aware that it will never be possible to suit the individual needs of every student, but the school will try to create a timetable that matches the needs of the majority.
100 students x 6 individual subject combinations (3 HLs and 3 SLs)

15. Admissions
In order to be enrolled automatically, students have to have:
excellent or very good overall academic results

For those students who do not meet these admission requirements there are entrance exams in place in Mathematics, Bosnian and English where students can demonstrate that they can follow the IB Diploma Program curriculum.
