As a student at BIM, I've had a positive experience overall. Beyond academics, the sense of community is strong, and it is clear that the teachers are invested in ensuring every student's success.

As a junior and student for a decade BASIS has been the best school I have ever experienced truly a place where students can excel and flourish.

Not a good school at all. There are huge problems that have gone unaddressed for years, including the slow and inefficient administration and auxiliary department, and teachers who behave inappropriately without consequences.
