[quote=Anonymous]I don’t want to make generalizations but I can speak to daughter’s experience. Every college is different and seeks different criteria. A system may “advantage” a kid at one but not the other. In hindsight, the rigorous school my DD attends is probably not great for her college admissions bc she wants to attend OOS flagship and has a hard time competing with kids from schools that have way more APs and grade inflation. Her school doesn’t send a lot of kids to Georgia, Michigan, UNC, Florida and the like. Schools like Georgia really value IB diploma or all AP and high grades. She has good (not all As) grades and few APs bc not offered. I think she would do much better at these types of schools from our local public bc she would have an IB option. I can only see this in hindsight though as I had no idea what kind of college she would want to attend as a HS freshman. [/quote]
