Well, if you’re taking IB classes, you might as well get the diploma. I think the diploma might be looked upon more favorably because of the extra components required (such as CAS, extended essay, internal assessments, etc.). If you want more credit, you can take the corresponding AP exam for the IB SL courses (this is what I did). Also, it is possible to take 4 HL’s and 2 SL’s if you are a diploma candidate (it doesn’t have to be 3 HL’s and 3 SL’s).
