Inés Bermudez-Cañete Cagigos from the Class of 2019 completed her two-year IBDP at ASB and is now studying business management in English at ESADE University in Barcelona. 

"After completing the IBDP, I felt more prepared than some of my classmates at university, especially managing stress and workload."

Inés shared how her IB studies allowed her to discover her passion for business and economics and let her glimpse into how her future in commerce could look. 

Studying at university during the Covid pandemic is not easy for anyone. "I have had to stop attending all my classes and shift to virtual learning," she shares, "it is frustrating not being able to connect with my professors in person. My university experience has completely changed."

When asked what her favorite memories from ASB are, Ines recalls her relationships with classmates and teachers. "Being able to connect with them at ASB was so different from relationships at my previous school, which was British. I enjoy the American way of learning, allowing students more freedom to express themselves and ask questions."

While Inés is not yet sure what she plans to do upon graduating from university, she knows that she will have plenty of options with her current degree and is eager to start work.

One word to describe ASB? 

"Diverse."

Great reconnecting with you, Inés! We wish you all the very best on your journey ahead.
