[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is some discussion on other threads about how the IB programs ramp up in junior and senior years, whereas the CAP-specific courses wind down the last two years. Winding down sounds better in light of college applications, SAT prep and AP exams. Plus, more flexibility in the student’s schedule to get an internship or classes that interest them during the last two years. Some say IB makes for a more well-rounded student, but CAP kids will be taking AP physics freshman year. My future CAP kid plans to take four years of math and world language in high school. And likely four years of science. So you can round them out in CAP too. [b]Hopefully they’ll have time to do some extracurriculars too.[/b] [/quote] My current CAP student is a three-season athlete and participates in other extracurricular activities, too. Many CAP kids have similar schedules. They seem to be remarkably good at time management. [/quote]
