You must have heard of the International Baccalaureate. It's a sooper advanced placement program in Highschool. You have to be able to do huge amounts of homework and have great time management skills. That is if you even make it past the rigorous entry exam. "Why even apply?" you may ask. Because, if you survive, you have an express ticket into just about any university you could want.
The reason that I am writing this post is that i have recently come into contact with some very relevant information partaining to a certain International program.
It seems that Bayveiw Hills has an intermediate IB pilot program going on. This would normally be fine, but it seems that the high school that is hosting IB is trying to establish a steady stream of acceptants from Bayveiw Hills.
This may seem fine from an external standpoint, but on the inside it is quite obviously corrupt. They will only accept 100 applicants, which is roughly 2/13 of the total amount. The problem here is, with the steady stream of acceptees from Bayveiw, they gain priority. So in other words, numerous applicants who, on an even playing feild, would get in, are being pushed out by inferior applicants from Bayveiw Hill.Also, the Bayveiw applicants from this pilot program are most likely prepped for the test, which would imply that they have an unfair advantage.
All in all, this is just another fine example of how incredibly Fucked up our world is.
PS. I got in, so please don't think this is my bitter and futile way of vindicating myself against an unfair system that has completely Fucked me over. It is merely observations from an onlooker who refuses to quiet down.

Congrats for getting into IB!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!!!!!! It still seems pretty unfair that you didn't get to try out because of appendicitis (is that how you spell it?) I'm still amazed that I got in. Does seem kinda unfair that it's corrupt like that though.
