[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IB Math in the DP is a rigorous course. But it just doesn’t have the calc name. Right now in 9th in the Middle Years Program at an IB school my kid is in Integrated Math 2, which has significant algebra, geometry, and trig. He will never have a class called Algebra or Calc on his transcript. But colleges understand the IB diploma.[/quote] What does it even mean to say that “colleges understand the IB diploma”? If my kid takes a 1-year IB SL math course, will colleges “understand” that that’s the same as taking calculus? College math departments definitely don’t treat it the same. But maybe admissions offices don’t look under the hood to see what IB courses a student actually took?[/quote]
