<p>jshain - I’m not doubting that your son is both an IB diploma candidate and an AP Scholar with Distinction; I was just commenting that in our region, the two high schools that offer the IB program don’t allow their IB students to take AP classes. The IB program is a full load leaving no time for other classes and it offers similar courses (there’s IB Chem or AP Chem). Maybe it’s also because the schools offer MYP, and those courses are the prereqs for IB courses. Here, IB and AP are just two separate tracks. Didn’t mean to offend.</p>
