[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anecdotal: Both of my AP kids roomed in college with kids from IB schools. At least one of them had the IB diploma--and I think both did. Both IB kids said that they thought the AP kids got a better deal. The AP kids certainly had more college credit.[/quote] I think it feels like a "better deal" because the extra-curriculars for the AP kids were voluntary, whereas CAS is prescribed for IB diploma candidates. Even if the kids end up doing the same activities, the IB kids feel like they are being forced to jump through hoops established by the IBO. There isn't nearly as much disparity in terms of college credit as there was a decade ago.[/quote]
