[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid (HS class of 2022) did the full IB Diploma at W-L. Its not clear whether it benefited him from an admissions perspective, as he aimed really high with his applications and didn't get in to many places (though he did end up in a very good spot), despite straight A's through HS, the IB Diploma, and an additional 5 AP classes. He did not get into UVa. He has been very well prepared for college, however, and continues to do very well.[/quote] Ouch! I was afraid of this. -OP[/quote] Thats hard to believe! If your kid was full IB at W-L with 5 APs and all As, then your kid was in the top 10 kids (not top 10 percent, top 10 people) that year. Just like my DS. Almost everyone in the top 20% who applied got into UVA. My DS got into 2 top 15 schools, UVA, W&M, and 2 U California schools, and his grades were just below your DS’s. [/quote]
