[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The IB numbers should be doubled, since the percent of kids eligible to take IB is only 50% barring accelerated math kids. Is this taking a course or taking the exam? If it's the exam, then it should be an even smaller denominator, since most IBs (except some SLs) test senior year only. IB is dumb, but trying to compare IB to AP is dumber.[/quote] It’s the numbers taking at least one AP or IB course. Compare the AP schools to other AP schools and IB schools to other IB schools. It’s foolish to suggest you can just double the IB rates to compare with the AP rates since very few AP courses are available to freshmen in FCPS. [/quote] To be specific, some (most?) AP schools have all their "honors" track kids enroll in AP human geography and AP world history as the defaults for 9th and 10th. AP precalc is also common for freshmen as more and more kids now finish Algebra 2 in 8th. [/quote]
