[quote=Anonymous][quote]That is yet another advantage of IB. The colleges only know who the candidates are, as opposed to the actual recipients. Since the points aren't tallied and diplomas aren't awarded until July, if you bomb an exam or fall a few points short of completing the diploma, it's irrelevant. Your college acceptance is already secure. And colleges just don't rescind over things that trivial. The GPA would be largely unaffected. Classic example of trying to put lipstick on a pig. Meanwhile, the AP kids already have completed AP courses, received their grades and, in many instances, received AP test results they can share with colleges and universities. [/quote] So, was PP implying that IB helps the weaker students cover up? [/quote]
