<p>ahhh, I see. I did not know all that about IB. So basically to summarize what everyone has said: In the comparison of AP vs. IB, there is no clear winner in terms of which students become more successful or smarter. While IB may prepare student for the stress that they may experience during college, and down the road, AP teaches the same material except in a format that is much less stressful, and a somewhat easier workload, and final test. Do I have my information correct thus far?</p>
