[quote=Anonymous]With the IB programme, you can get an IB diploma. With AP, you just take as many AP courses as you want in the areas that interest you. There is no "AP diploma" as such. If you commit to the full IB diploma programme (you won't know until after you've graduated from HS whether you've done well enough on the IB exams to get the diploma), that looks great on college applications. Otherwise, I've heard that you're better off taking a handful of AP courses than a few IB courses when applying to schools. Among local schools in FCPS with IB programs, most don't really have many full IB diploma candidates. Marshall does a much better job in that regard than most. [/quote]
