Haha um, there are only five AP classes that our school does not offer: Chinese, French Lit, Italian, Spanish Lit and Japanese. Our school is public, but very very well known and one of the largest in the state. We don't yet have IB because of the sheer massive size of the school; I'm the editor in chief of various journalism publications and my junior year I wrote a story about why we don't yet have IB- the size is why. For whatever reason it will take longer to implement with us. But our AP program is fantastic; the teachers are all wonderful. I haven't heard of anyone ever failing an AP test. Those who are in the AP program at my school tend to take many AP classes. I myself have taken roughly a dozen. And I got a 2360 on the SAT. I don't know what everyone else got but they surely have similar scores because our GPAs and such are all extremely close. Normally just about everyone from my school who applies is accepted at Rice, however; this was the first year that such was not the case. 'Course, the out of state benefit is huge, and we are in Texas.
