Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
YES, there is considerable difference. AP covers a wide variety of topics...IB requires more indepth investigation of fewer topics. Also, a paper is required. IB Psych is divided into two levels--SL and HL. You have to take SL first...then HL for a total of two years.
You may want to check w/ your prospective college for credit options.
Both are good classes...different in scope.
BIG DIFFERENCE.
1. AP is mostly terms and applications.
2. IB is about the psychologists, their studies, and results, ...
at my school, we take ap psych sophomore year and then ib psych jr. year.
I dont think so
Im in IB and i am taking IB/AP Psychology
they r the exact same class so..
i dont know if its just my school or not but as far as i know, they r the same class
they're are NOT the same class.
IB tends to be more in depth than AP, and somewhat more challenging.

I think that all depends on how your classes are taught by your teachers. For example, I had a really good AP psych teacher and almost the entire class got 5s on the test because she taught the class extremely well and we learned a lot of information that most AP psych students wouldn't.
