[quote=Anonymous]Do not go to an IB school. The whole program is smoke and mirrors. The supposed "IB philosophy" is nothing more than best practices for teaching, and the same methods are widely used at other non-IB schools. The grading system is ridiculous, biased against American students, and is likely to pull down your GPA. AP schools have many more choices, and their value is well-understood by American colleges. The only advantage to an IB diploma is for the student who plans to study in Europe after high school, or in Canada. In those universities, IB credits are easily transferable.[/quote]
