IB Group 4 Subjects
The Group 4 (or Experimental Sciences) subjects of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme comprise the main scientific emphasis of this internationally recognized high school programme. They consist of five courses, four of which are offered at both the Standard Level (SL) and Higher Level (HL): Chemistry, Biology, Physics, and Design Technology. There is also Astronomy and a transdisciplinary course, Environmental Systems and Societies (SL only), that satisfies Diploma requirements for Groups 3 and 4, and a pilot course, Sports, Exercise, and Health Science, that is offered at schools participating in the pilot program. Astronomy also exists as a school based syllabus, particularly exciting if taken alongside Physics. Students taking two or more Group 4 subjects may combine any of the aforementioned, except for Environmental Systems and Biology.

Famous quotes containing the words group and/or subjects:
“If the Russians have gone too far in subjecting the child and his peer group to conformity to a single set of values imposed by the adult society, perhaps we have reached the point of diminishing returns in allowing excessive autonomy and in failing to utilize the constructive potential of the peer group in developing social responsibility and consideration for others.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
“Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
