[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are the credits MIT will give you for advanced math classes: AP: A score of 5 on the Calculus BC exam will grant you credit for 18.01. A score of 5 on the Calculus AB exam allows you to enroll in the accelerated Calculus sequence of 18.01A/18.02A. IB Higher Level Maths: A score of 7 will grant you credit for 18.01. [/quote] This seems to confirm that IB HL does not go beyond AP Calc BC, even when it’s taught after AP Calc BC. With some context, it also explains why high schools insert the AP course into the IB sequence: - 40% of test-takers score a 5 on the BC exam, and students can take that exam junior year, so as to report that score on their college applications. - But only 20% of test-takers score a 7 on the IB HL exam, and students cannot take that exam until the end of senior year.
