IB is a fantastic course.
However for many, IB automatically isn't a choice for them due to the fact that students wish to take the 2 sciences (excluding Environmental Studies) and an art subject.
In some cases even 3 sciences (biology, chemistry and physics) are an option. But isn't IB supposed to be a course where students are able to become more well-rounded? So isn't art and 2 sciences more well-rounded than having 3 sciences?
Therefore, this should be an option available to students.
I actually applied for a course with an art and two sciences, and they eventually approved it (though I missed out 6 months of biology ha)
