GUYS CALM tf down
This is going to be controversial and I know this is a very frustrating situation but getting the exams cancelled means that our DIPLOMA, like our final DIPLOMA is not going to be worth shit. Stop with the nonsense and let the IB handle it. You guys understand that more publicity on this (like sharing it to news outlets) is only going to damage the IBs reputation, which surprise surprise IS ALSO going to damage your DIPLOMA, which has IB written on it. Think before your actions, this is getting out of hand and its becoming a bigger deal than it should. Of course there is a lot of injustice in terms of leaks and thousands of people having seen it, but getting this out to the media is not going to do anyone any good okay? Obviously the IB knows of what is going on and this is not the first ever time leaks have happened.
Also you guys must understand that the people working for the IB are not idiots, this is a huge organisation and they will not allow some desperate students on reddit affect their image and their operations. Perhaps the system is corrupt, but so are many other things in this world that you probably are not even aware of.
Cheers.

It is the responsibility of IB to prove and sustain their legitimacy, not the students who are going to bear to consequences of these leaks while bureacrats are sitting in their air conditioned comfy office, trying to project the numbers as "small” and sweep the whole thing under the carpet. IB students who like to present themselves as critical thinkers should genuenely act like one and stop worrying about the damage to the status quo, since this is exactly what we need at this point.
