In 6th grade, they determine if a kid is on an IB track or not? If a kid is not in IB and it is determined to be the most rigorous course load, then a kid would have a very slim chance of getting into a top tier college?

D2 went straight into IB as a junior and didn’t find it to be particularly challenging, but just more restrictive. I am actually more worried that D2 wouldn’t be as prepared for college as D1, who didn’t do IB in high school.
