[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have observed that UVA, in particular, loves IB students.[/quote] Well that might be true for schools that have IB program, BUT there are plenty of Arlington students not at WL who get into UVA. [/quote] I think the issue might be that you won't get into UVA from W-L if you don't have the "most rigorous" program, which at W-L is IB?[/quote] Not true. I’ve had 2 go from WL to UVA in the last few years and neither was full IB. Took a mixture of AP and IB. IB helped with writing but the classes tend to be more focused on certain aspects of a topic. For example, my son who took IB American history learned a lot about the civil war and reconstruction but almost nothing else. My son who took AP American history learned our history from colonial times through tne 1970s.[/quote]
