EDIT: I think I found it, is it this?

The IB is the International Baccalaureate. The most hellish pre-university program you can ever take. Nørreg is one school in Denmark offering the IB - it was the one I would have gone to had I not gotten a scholarship to Copenhagen International School.
The idea behind the IB is that you have to come out a balanced student. What that means is you have to take a language on a literature level, one on a second-language level, a natural science, a social science, mathematics and optionally some sort of art (if art is not your inclination you take a second subjects in one of the above areas). Additionally, by the end of the second year you must have written a 4000 word Extended Essay in one of your subjects, accumulated 150 hours of CAS (creativy/action/service - gathered through extracurricular activities), and have written an essay as well as have done an oral presentatoin in Theory of Knowledge (which is supposedly a course linking all your subjects and teaching you critical thinking).
In general, IB students develop a feeling of bitterness (really, a love/hate relationship of a sort) towards to program. I, for one, was not too fond of it at the time I was pulling two all-nighters per week on average for a 1-2 month period while having my social life constrained one night per week. However, it does give me enough of a reason to act snobbishly around those taking 'A' Levels or (*gasp!*) wasting their time with the public education system
The first two or so years in college are supposedly a breeze after the IB; but oh at what cost!
