[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reposting due to coding issue. PP's presumption is that college-level gen eds are equal to APs. That's a judgment error. At a good university they are better (regardless of said university's AP granting policies which can be fairly disconnected from course quality in any direction). Many STEM majors have fumbled while accelerating based on good AP scores.[/quote] They are not that different. If UVA is fine with AP Calculus BC and IB HL Math, then I’ll take yes for an answer. In what way do you think the college classes are better? It’s the same syllabus, often the same textbook, exams have comparable difficulty. Some college classes are huge and most interaction is with the TA anyways. People just invent reasons to believe IB or AP for that matter, confer them some intangible advantage. Most of it is just wishful thinking.[/quote]
