[quote=Anonymous]They're two very different, but equally valuable programs. AP provides a wider variety of alacarte classes, and IB provides a comprehensive and writing-focused program. Word on the street is that AP students get more college credits, but IB students are more prepared for college level writing. Either program can be tailored to be heavy in either English, History, Science, or math. AP classes are one year long Some IB classes are one year and some are two years IB has a bad rep in fairfax county because it was placed in the lower performing schools, however in most other areas it is a highly desired program. Definitely don't rely on this board for info. There are several nuts who enjoy bashing each program. Do your own research and draw your own conclusion[/quote]
