  10. What Our Grads Say “During my time in the IB Programme, I made truly lifelong friendships with my peers through our shared interests in academic pursuits as well as a common passion for world issues.” “Being part of a community with motivated and like-minded students pushed me to go outside my comfort zone and develop as a leader in the community.” “The skills I learned in the IB Programme have been invaluable at McGill. Beyond just time management, and essay writing skills, the IB taught me how to evaluate information and think critically about the content of my courses.”
