[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you wondering which ones colleges prefer, the truth is they don't care. What they care about is if your kid took the most rigorous classes that are available in their HS. If it's at an IB school 
like Seneca Valley, then those would be your IB HL classes. If not at an IB school like Sherwood, then those would be your AP classes.[/quote]

What advice do you have for the Seneca Valley student interested in a stem major when their only available HL science class is Biology, and they can’t take AP Calculus BC, only AB?

You really think there won’t be any competition with the Sherwood student that took all AP level of Calculus BC, Statistics, Physics C, Chemistry and Biology? They are coming from the same district after all.

Regardless of what you think colleges prefer, it’s clear which student got the better preparation for their future major and career.[/quote]

The student who attended the high school with a higher number of minorities will be advantaged in college admissions, as long as they took the most rigorous courses at their school.[/quote]
