AP International Diploma: does it really help?

<p>Assuming a student has little to no awards, would having the AP International Diploma benefit the person’s application at all? </p>

<p>I want to get that award next year but in order to do so I’d have to self-study a few additional APs which I don’t really care for like AP Human Geography and AP French(my first language but I haven’t used it in 2 years). I’d have to take AP French at school and give up my studying of Japanese. </p>

<p>Am I better off spending the time self-studying other APs like Psych and Bio etc.?</p>
