Is it better to be in IB(International Baccalaureate) or AP(Advance Placement)?
IB Diploma is recognized worldwide, while AP Scores are recognized by U.S. colleges. If you are looking to attend school in the world, then IB is better, because not only is it recognized, but also because it is prestigious because it demands a balance of all fields such as academics, community service, and also fine arts. AP is strictly academics, and if you are in the US it might be better. However, I have heard that Harvard application officers put people who have received IB diplomas on top of people who took a lot of AP classes. A bit unfair there I believe…
