So next year i have the option to go to a high school that i am not zoned for to take IB classes where as the high school i would go to does not offer that program
IB classes are like AP classes except they are only offered at magnet or world schools, it is a complete program (freshman through senior) where as AP is not, after you graduate from the program you are automatically given a millenium schollarship and it looks a hell of a lot better on schollarship and college applications. I have no idea what i should do!!!! help if you can please!!!

Well during the IB Program you are with a whole bunch of people that you see every year and you guys can become good friends. IB Is also much easier than Ap classes and the scholarship def worths it. Ap is so pointless if you are going into medical or dental professions or even planning to go to graduate school because you'll have to take all those AP credits agian in college. I personally did Ap and not IB, on the other hand my cousin is much more satisfied with his current situation. he did not waste four years taking AP classes and now take all those classes again in College! AP is pointless and hard for those who want to go to grad school. Good luck

the question is (no offence) a no brainer.. the IB program is highly respected not only in the US but also around the world. if you have this opportunity you should definately go for it... i cannot descripe in powerful enough words how much you should go for it.. it might be a bit of inconvenience if the school is out of the way.. and the workload might be tougher.. but try and think down the road 5 -10 years.. you will surely consider it the best descision of your life

take the AP classes and get super grades. Then you can get into a GREAT College and all the companies will want you. GET INTO A GREAT COLLEGE by doing great in high school.
