[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a ridiculous “discussion” sorry OP[/quote]
yes, someone comparing private IB to a public magnet in a large public.

I think OP's question was answered in pg 1 of the thread.

Summary:

RMIB is better; has a high diploma rate; peer group is more higher achieving.  The students start their magnet level classes (not IB, but magnet level) in 9th grade; example, RMS English is only open to RMIB magnet students.

BCC's program starts in 11th grade.  9th and 10th grades have classes with everyone else.[/quote]

What do RMIB students do for 9th and 10th grade? The Diploma Program starts in 11th. [/quote]
There are specific courses in 9th/10th that are only available to IB magnet students, like RMS English 9.  They also take several AP classes.[/quote]

Again, the program only has 100 seats and there are 8,000 potential applicants so odds are very slim of getting admitted..[/quote]

Again, unless you have an extremely advanced kid who is strong all around. Those of us who do, know when we have a kid who has an extremely high chance of getting accepted. [/quote]
