“Your GPA can go over 4.0 with AP classes.”
I.B. is , I think, a step above AP.....
IB and AP are effectively the same thing. "Most colleges give credit for AP exams and higher-level IB exams, but not all give credit for standard-level IB exams......colleges dont automatically consider AP or IB harder or more impressive on a transcript. Since IB is a rarer program, they cant penalize students for not taking it. Plus, there are huge differences in how both AP and IB courses are taught and graded at high schools across the country."
