[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you jealous of kids who get As in "regular" classes? To most colleges, an A is an A.[/quote] I doubt that's entirely true. I suspect college admissions committees make a distinction between "IB Diploma", "AP English", and "Honors English" and regular 12th grade English. The thing is that at many schools it may very well be a distinction without a consequential difference. If you're in a state where the top 10% of students are automatically accepted to the flagship state university, then unless your Honors/AP/IB class comes with a GPA bump, you've actually got less incentive to take it.
