IB Program Weighted GPA's

<p>Hi-
I was wondering how your school (or most schools) weight gpas Particularly in the International Baccalaureate Program. Im pretty sure AP classes are weighted like this:</p>

<p>A- 5.0
B- 4.0
etc...</p>

<p>But does the IB program do it the same way? What about weighting the gpa for Honors course in IB (Pre-IB classes)? Thanks.</p>

<p>Yes, the IB program does weight classes the way you thought, but not for "pre-IB or Honor's classes"</p>

<p>So it does it the same way as AP? Ok that clears things up. So you dont get any extra points for honors classes? Or would it be like this-
A- 4.5
B- 3.5</p>

<p>at my school, IB is weighted
A-6.0
B-4.5</p>

<p>At my school, the PIB classes and honor classes are weighted that way. Except a Bn is like 3.8 or something. Maybe its lower...idk</p>

<p>At my school we do grades out of 100pts, and Honors/AP courses are weighted 10%, so 90%=>99%</p>

<p>In my school is like this:</p>

<p>Honors = Pre Ib</p>

<p>A= 5 </p>

<p>AP = IB</p>

<p>A = 6</p>

<p>@ my school we have no IBs
just AP
what is the difference though</p>

<p>Our school weighs AP and IB the same way.</p>

<p>A - 5.0
B - 4.0</p>

<p>Honors is only weighted junior and senior year.</p>

<p>^^^^^anyone want to answear my question^^^^</p>

<p>There isn't much difference between AP and IB, for the most part the difficulty is comparable. There are a few differences in terms of testing and IB diploma and what not.</p>

<p>Check Wikipedia for more...</p>

<p>alright thanks</p>
