[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College credit with AP. no such advantage with IB[/quote] Not true. Every college is different and some offer placement versus credit for both AP and IB. To get credit for IB, most schools do stipulate the IB class has to be an HL (higher level) class versus an SL (standard level) class. And you usually need to score a 6 or 7, although a 5 may get you credit in some subjects (for example Chemistry at UVA. If you score a 5, you get credit for CHEM 1410 but if you get a 6 or 7, you get credit for CHEM 1420.) The same is true for AP - you usually need to score a 4 or 5 to get credit. [/quote]
