Which do you reckon is better, in the sense of what provides you more opportunities and is more beneficial to take? Who should consider the IB?...and yeah, discuss!!

definitely IB, especially if you want to work oversea's.
IB offers a more rounded, less mark driven system, (a levels instead of 0.05 of an atar), greater variety of subjects useful to higher education--> especially compolsory languages.
IB should be done if you plan to study/work oversea's, have a love of languages and or humanities, and want a unique experience

i think that the IB is for the people who are all-rounders and can manage good scores/grades in all their subjects. the hsc is for the people who have "specialties" or.. the people who enjoy some subjects over others and who get A's in the subjects the like and B's in the ones they don't. or they don't do as well in test in the subjects they don't like. etc
