My son scored AL 5 .We are confused between IP A level and IB programs.Whether to choose RI or ACS(I)
All top students will definitely choose RI , I am worried how he will cope up in the competitive environment.He is from the neighbourhood school. I feel ACS(I) less competitive environment(may be i am wrong)
Please guide
I can't say I really understand the difference between IP and IB (former is UK style and latter US style) program but I don't think you should worry too much whether your son is able to cope in ANY top tier schools. My boy was admitted into RI last year from a very mediocre neighbourhood primary school (ranked 100+ if you believe in such ranking list) and he is doing well there. Teachers are caring and helpful and his friends there, unlike a lot of hearsays, are just a bunch of \"silly\" boys exactly like my son

I believe ACS is same.

So no worries, let your son make his decision and go with his heart.
I think ACS (I) IB program can be as competitive as RI. Not sure if it is true, from what I was told, students who choose IB route generally will end up pursuing further studies in US, some may not even complete the full 6 years of the IP program.

Thank you
