Substituting Courses From Other Subject Groups
Group 6 subjects are considered electives, thus an IB Diploma candidate may substitute a variety of courses from other subject groups in lieu of taking a Group 6 course. This would result in a student studying an extra language, taking an extra social science or experimental science course, or taking Computer Science or Further Mathematics SL (provided that student is already taking Mathematics HL). The Group 3 Information in a Global Society (ITGS) course or the Group 5 Computer Science would be taken only as sixth subjects, as they do not satisfy the IB Diploma requirements for their respective subject groups.

Famous quotes containing the words substituting, courses, subject and/or groups:
“I am fearful when I see people substituting fear for reason.”
—Edmund H. North (1911–1990)
“All the courses of my life do show
I am not in the roll of common men.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The writer, like a swimmer caught by an undertow, is borne in an unexpected direction. He is carried to a subject which has awaited him—a subject sometimes no part of his conscious plan. Reality, the reality of sensation, has accumulated where it was least sought. To write is to be captured—captured by some experience to which one may have given hardly a thought.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
“Trees appeared in groups and singly, revolving coolly and blandly, displaying the latest fashions. The blue dampness of a ravine. A memory of love, disguised as a meadow. Wispy clouds—the greyhounds of heaven.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
