[quote=Anonymous]My Class of 2013 kid completed the requirements for the IB diploma but as a PP noted this year's test scores won't be available until the summer, and so I doubt that getting the IB diploma versus IB certificate significantly helped with college admissions in my kid's case. My kid applied to 12 schools: 2 publics; 2 of the top 5-USNews ranked SLACs; 4 of the Ivies; and 4 of the top 10-USNews ranked non-Ivy privates; was accepted at both publics and SLACs, 2 Ivies (rejected at 1; wait-listed at other), and 3 non-Ivy privates (WL at the other). I think that my kid's actual performance/grade in the particular class had more of an impact on the college admissions decision than whether the class was also labelled IB, AP, Honors, etc. [/quote]
