soccorguy - when you “look at the colleges” it is very difficult to tell - that’s why I’m asking for folks’ experience. Pretty much every adcom is going to say they like to see students have high grades in a challenging curriculum. But unless it’s obvious that $$ or credit is given for the diploma, experience, I think, is the only way to tell if it actually matters.

I know my older S applied to 7 selective schools two years ago, including one ivy, and the only school that asked him specifically about the diploma vs. an all IB schedule was Davidson in NC
