For those applying to college, taking AP\/IB courses can significantly boost your chance because it shows that you are willing to enroll in challenging, college-level courses in high school. However, there are just way too many courses to choose from, and your high school certainly doesn\u2019t offer all AP\/IB subjects or doesn\u2019t have enough spots for every student. We\u2019ve compiled a list of ALL AP and IB courses, and hope this serves as a general guide for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To obtain the IB Diploma, students must enroll in the Diploma Programme (DP) and complete the core class named Theory of Knowledge (TOK). They must also choose a class from all 6 groups, unless they want to replace Group 6 (Arts) with an additional class from Group 1-4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In general, if you are interested in one particular subject and wish to learn more in-depth throughout the school year, you should be taking the AP course\/studying independently and take the AP exam of that subject in May. If your school offers the 2-year IB Diploma Programme, be sure to take advantage of it and explore these subjects by doing research and ask former students and teachers for guidance. After all, you want to do well no matter you take AP or IB because nothing convinces admissions officers more than a stellar college-level exam score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
