Do you have any previous work experience?
Yes, I'm prior military. I've been told IB does not emphasize technical skills. Rather, they're looking for students who can put in the long hours.

Long hours mean a lot. The thing that matters most is being teachable and coachable.
If you’re a freshman then no one is gonna have you work long hours
If I'm a veteran, will they reconsider
