[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My now-senior full IB student at W-L took Alg. 2/Trig as a freshman, then Dual Enrollment Pre-Calc as a sophomore, then AP Calc AB as a junior, and is now in the 1 year IB Math Studies class.[/quote]

So is that the partial IB option? [/quote]

Oh wait - you do say “full IB”. I didn’t realize DE & AP was an option for IB… [/quote]

PP here.  You can take AP and DE classes if you end up doing to the full IB program.  But you have to meet the IB requirements as well.  In my son's case, he took 5 AP classes (World History (9th grade), Psychology (10th), Spanish Language (10th), US Gov't (10th) and Calc AB (11th)), as well as the Dual Enrollment pre-calc class in 10th grade.  Almost all full IB students take the AP US Gov't class in 10th, because taking this class, or something similar subject-wise, is required by Virginia for HS graduation.  All of his IB classes are 2-year classes, except for his IB math class noted above, and the Theory of Knowledge class, which he is taking as senior (as most kids do).[/quote]

At our private AP Euro History is what you take in 10th.  Strange because it is the hardest of all the AP History courses.[/quote]
