Can i take IB certificate courses if my high school doesn't offer IB? (Canada)?

Question

I'm looking into high schools now, and im going to a high school where they offer AP but not IB, so i was wondering if i could enroll in a couple of IB courses at my local IB world school , AND still go to a high schoool of my choice, even if it means going to another school for a day or something like that.

Answer 1

I am currently enrolled in an IB school and I find it to be very challenging (I am a junior who is striving for the IB diploma). I think it would be overwhelming to take AP courses and still take IB. Both of this "programs" are very similar and prestigious so try to stick to one. Or you might not get done one or another. I find IB to be very fun because we have "sister schools" and we get to interact with students from other parts of the world and the curriculum is very different then from regular classes (at least that has been my experience) but in any choice you make I hope you do well.
