[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is so, so sad. These schools have enough to deal with, it's a shame the county saddled them with an ineffective ([b]no one gets the damn IB diploma[/b]), inefficient program.[/quote] I'm assuming that's hyperbole, but is there a place to look up percentages? [/quote] The last information released by FCPS was in late 2013 and noted these percentages of seniors at IB schools graduating in 2013 without IB diplomas: Mount Vernon 96.9% Annandale 95.4% Lee 93.7% Edison 92.2% Stuart 92.0% South Lakes 83.5% Robinson 83.5% Marshall 80.3%[/quote] And if you were to compare that to the number of kids not taking more than 6 AP classes at any AP high school, you would likely have very similar numbers. [/quote] Would you like to show your work? From what I've seen and heard anecdotally, the percentages would be significantly higher at many AP schools. [/quote]
