[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But isn’t IB >AP > honors in terms of rigidity, how is this fair?[/quote] It's not fair, but it does "close" the achievement gap.[/quote] It does not really matter. Colleges do not take the GPA of MCPS into account. They check to see what are the highest levels of courses offered at the school and what courses the student took. They are using the GPA and transcripts to rank the students in the school and district. That is the reason that AP courses, SAT etc become a great equalizer. [/quote]
