african american in ib

Do african americans taking the ib diploma have advantage over people taking Aps?

No. The diploma itself is awarded in June/July and thus, is not used in college admissions evaluations. IB vs AP classes are seen as equally rigorous by colleges.

If I may: in another thread you said you had the 2nd fastest XC time in the state of CA. If so, then you’d be on many coaches’ recruit lists. Was that embellishment?

Why would that be an advantage?

short answer: yes

@carachel2 I see many URMs with ok stats getting into the top institutions so i just assumed.
