“IB only gives you an advantage if you do well, especially if you are in an Ontario IB school. That's because they agreed on some ridiculous translation scheme between IB grades and Ont marks. I say ridiculous because it's favorable to IB students. For example, the top IB grade is 7, which you can get if your final IB mark is at least 85% (varies by subjects). Now, the scheme would then translate the 7 to an Ont mark of at least 96%. (Your teacher will then determine the final mark, between 96 and 100, to give you). The ridiculous part comes in if your Ont mark is say 86%, but you get an IB grade 7. Overnight, your new Ontario mark will be bumped up to at least 96%. ”
