[quote=Anonymous]The above is a good point. My oldest did a mix of IB and APs and got into a top ten LAC. They doubled up on science and took only the IB high level history (two year) course that was of most interest to them. That had a lot of writing, more than the AP humanities courses. My youngest wants to do full IB and they are a strong and enthusiastic writer (less focused on math) so I will encourage them to pursue it. I think that if your child is a strong writer then IB will not be super stressful for them, at least not more than taking 5/6 APs per year would be. If your kid needs to get straight As to feel good as opposed to being okay with some Bs but a very high level Of rigor then I would not suggest full IB. [/quote]
