Should I take the AP Bio exam whilst taking IB bio SL

So, I’m considering dropping out of IB, I really want to take the AP bio exam as I want to get credit for the class, If I were to start self studying right now, would I be able to get a 5 on the exam. My bio teacher told me that sl goes over half of the AP curriculum, so I think this may not be a bad idea. Please let me know

My friend took Bio SL and got a 4 on both the IB exam and the AP exam so I’d suggest just studying and taking the ap exam.

Yes. Even if you stick with IB more colleges will give credit for AP than IB SL.
