Is IB needed to get into the university of Miami (Florida)?

Question:I am currently in 10th grade and taking pre-ib. I want to go to the university of miami and i just wanted to know if all the work that i'm doing now and will especially be doing in 11th and 12th grade be worth it. I want to be prepared for college, but i also only have 3 more years to be with some of the people i may never see again and i want to enjoy this. So if someone who already took the class could just let me know that they did the work and were successful and still got to hang out with their friends and enjoy themselves, i would feel a lot better instead of being semi-depressesed right now. If it helps I'm in the IB program @ miramar high so if any of you miramar IB students are out there please help me!

Answers:
No college requires that you take the IB. Miami is relatively competitive for admission, so it would certainly help if you take the most challenging courses in your school, but if you do extremely well the next level down, you'll probably still get in. But try it, and if you don't do well, or feel overstressed move to easier classes.
