Hey everyone! I'm an IB student, but I've also taken a few AP courses. When I apply to college, can I submit both my AP and IB scores, or should I only submit one set of scores? Also, do colleges generally prefer one over the other? Thank you for your help!
Hey there! It's great to see that you're thinking about the college application process. To answer your question, you can definitely submit both AP and IB scores to colleges. Many students submit scores from both programs, and it can help demonstrate your academic breadth and ability to excel in different types of courses. As for colleges preferring one over the other, it really depends on the institution. Some colleges may have a slight preference for one program, but generally speaking, they recognize and value the rigor of both AP and IB courses. I would recommend submitting all of your scores, as this will give the admissions officers a more comprehensive understanding of your academic accomplishments. Best of luck with your college applications, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have more questions!
