[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the question is: does IB offer an advantage in college admissions compared to AP? Are they recognized equally? I thought IB was more work for the same amount of recognition?[/quote] IB kids take AP level classes, it’s not one or the other. If not, the classes generally prepare them for the AP tests. You don’t need to take AP classes to take the exams.[/quote] IB kids do take some AP classes in years 9 and 10, but at the 11th and 12th level you either take the IB version of a class or the AP version. So you can do IB Chem SL/HL or AP Chem. But if you choose to do AP Chem instead of IB Chem, you'd need to take another IB-level science class to fulfill the science requirement for the IB Diploma.[/quote]
