[quote=Anonymous]I think RM has the broadest offerings of IB courses because all IB students (~140-170 each year) must be taking the full diploma. IB courses are generally not offered a la carte (with a few exceptions for some low enrollment courses). This means that there are enough students to offer most IB courses, and they are generally not combined with AP courses (levels 5, 6, and 7 of languages being an exception.) For example, IB Biology, IB Chemistry, and IB Physics are all two year sequences with HL/SL choice after two years and they are separate from the AP science courses. If you have a choice of location to move to, I would aim for the RM cluster. I know that some of the students who join the IB diploma cohort in 11th grade come from overseas and other IB programs, and the school is used to assisting the transition of those types of students. -RMIB parent[/quote]
