[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is better off getting an IB diploma than they would be if they took AP courses, especially if they took some AP courses that are writing and research-intensive. That is why the top-performing high schools remain AP schools and there is no interest in converting to IB. It’s turned out to be a poor investment by FCPS, but leadership won’t revisit it because they are suckers for any program that claims to turn kids into “global citizens.”[/quote] Yep.[/quote] +2 Everyone can see IB is inferior to AP and a bad fit for most students. But if you’re bringing it up, you’re an “IB hater”.[/quote]
