CAS 1.1.1

I have just returned from our IB orientation trip. From it i have learned many things about IB that is very relevant to me as a student. Such as in the outdoor adventure aspect of our trip such as team building skills, trust and to keep pushing myself to the best of my ability. I also have a better appreciation for CAS as i have learned that it plays a huge role in my acceptance to the university of my choice. If i can show the universities the i can be the type of student that is motivated, excited for learning and has the ability to make things happen, it would help me if my final grades arn't to standard. universities will under certain circumstance look over your grades and look at you as and individual and then they will decide whether or not you fit their criteria. this is the main thing that i took from our group sessions during our trip i found that it was very relevent and an important thing to keep in mind but at teh same time i should strive for personal acdemic excellence.
