      what is the difference between IP and IB? we are in delimma to choose IP or IB
      Please advise.
      thanks
      There are 2 type of IP: IB or A-level ?

      So, IB is actually one form (type) of IP.
      Thus, when mentioned the word \"IP\", should specify clearly :-

      Is it IB or is it A-level, that u are talking about, since both are also IP.

          I am referring to International Baccalaureate (IB) VS A level (e.g what RI and RGS offers).

            One of the Forum titles is IB vs IP. You can read through all the information there provided by other parents.

                  First, the risk of doing the above is either high or negligible, depending on the circumstances. If your second choice is an AL13-AL14 COP school, you aren't really risking much, as you will likely still get in (all AL12s come before AL13s, regardless of choice order). In contrast, if your second choice is an AL12 school the risk is higher, as you will be second choice instead of first choice.

                  Second, the school selection process is tricker under AL (than it was under t-score). Last year, several schools moved from AL(X) to AL (X +1/2/3). There may have been few people at AL(X+1) willing to \"waste a choice,\" so when there were spots available there was a void and the COP moved higher (and what looks like a lot). IMO, many of the movements (upward) were likely due to last year's small cohort size (which reverses somewhat, but not fully this year).

                  In the end, any particular school's COP can move +/- for a variety of reasons. It kind of depends what you want and what you are willing to risk...
                  Thanks for the advice...ya i saw last year COP was +/- quite a bit.

                      I think all domains are out - they released on the same date as last year. For us, it's Artistic Gym and Athletics (friend).
