<p>I know that Penn wants to see students that take the hardest classes that they can, but do they like to see IB or AP or college credit. Do they prefer one more than another?</p>

<p>What is an IB class? What does “IB” stand for?</p>

<p>Your question doesn’t make a lot of sense. Credit is credit. Look at the undergraduate admissions website, and you can compare how you get credit from both IB and AP subjects. So no, there is no ‘preference’ for credit. Once you get credit for a subject, you just get the credit.</p>

<p>theworld8905, IB = International Baccalaureate. See <a href=“http://www.ibo.org%5B/url%5D”>www.ibo.org</a>.</p>
