[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colleges don't care if students receive an IB diploma?[/quote] They care in the sense that it signifies you took the most rigorous curriculum at your high school, and this gives you a boost in admission chances.[/quote] Yes, this. It effectively demonstrates the ability to succeed across disciplines plus the rigor and focus on analytical writing, which helps with strong essays. 8 IB kids in DC's class got into Penn this year. And historically Georgetown has admitted a disproportionately high number of students from this program. For some schools (not all) I do think IB does give a boost, though it's annoying most don't give credit.[/quote]
