IB is gruelling. I know.
Personally I'd rather deal with the first 2 years of IBD, than going for a top tier PhD program, or settle for an average ass 9-5 job. For a PhD Science program, its basically undergrad all over again, except with some batshit professor that you'd have to pull all nighters to get the data done in time, and the job prospects hardly improve much once your 4+ years are up.
And I'd rather do IB, hours and all, than stick with an average salary, and complain that I'm broke and can't afford to do anything with my meager salary, and envy every person that makes more. Fuck that.
