[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://www.fcps.edu/academics/graduation-requirements-and-course-planning/college-credit-high-school/international Why is it that fcps offers IB program in Mount Vernon/Lewis/Justice/..., but not in McClean/Langley/Oakton/...?[/quote] In those schools, the lack of student enrollment in AP courses led to a promotion of the relatively less challenging IB courses, which were more attractive to the student body. However, at McClean, Langley, and Oakton, not only do AP courses have significant enrollment, but post-AP courses are also in high demand. This has resulted in IB courses being of limited interest and relevance. [/quote] When I was in FCPS, you could only take APs by invitation. Unfortunately, many parents complained, which led to these courses being dumbed down so their kids could keep up. It's a shame how bad things have gotten.[/quote]
