[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many IB schools offer AP courses for the strongest students to take as freshmen/sophomores or those who don’t want to pursue an IB diploma. [/quote] THIS. Those students who don’t want to pursue the IB diploma can take AP courses. The highest performing students can be further tracked into AP courses in 9th and 10th, then IB track 11th and on. This will give them a huge advantage in college admissions showing high AP scores early on and strong IB scores later. I think it’s a good thing to offer more rigorous courses like AP earlier on to the kids who can handle it in 9th and 10th. The kids not pursuing the IB diploma can take AP in 11th and 12th or when they can handle it. It is good to offer more tracking IMO.[/quote]
