it was 887/1100

CAN anyone explain how that's possible because the person who achieved that equivalence was from u.s and clearly IBCC deducts 20% so how is it POsssible to get that score

I am slightly confused.. you send them your 4 year grade report, and they look and consider only some of it? I know you live in canada, so it might be different (I have no idea if it is different), but what classes did they look at?

All of them from grades 11 and 12? Why not the entire 4 years' grades? Certain subjects?
noo hunny..lol ok look u need 30 credits in total
IBCC looks at 10 courses: MANDATORY :grade 11 physics, grade 11 chem., gr 11 bio, gr 11 eng, gr 12 physics, gr 12 chem., gr 12 bio. gr 12 english.
and then there are 2 elective (optional) courses its up to you to take...i took speaking and presentation skills and my second one was History. BUT they considered gr 11 math for me for sum odd reason. but w.e so yeah

and yeah foreginers dunt need to give entrance examination unless you dunt have citizenship

the answer to ur question is AP CLASSES...
i recently got my ibbc score...and it wasnt anywhere close to that score..
i was extremely disappointed, although i had striaght A's throughout high school, in all of my classes...
i argued with the IBCC...and they pointed out that i hadn't taken AP Bio/Chem/Phys...
bcuz of that, they deducted 20%...
if i had taken AP courses (and gotten As in them and a 4 or 5 on the AP test) , they would have deducted only 10%...

...although i have read somewhere on this webiste, that AP courses are not required,
TECHNICALLY THEY ARE...
especially if u want a score close to the 880-900 range...
just getting straight As in honors courses (what i did) just isnt enough...
especially if ur applying under PTAP...ur score needs to be ATLEAST greater than 850...the LAST person to get into a govt college under PTAP had a score of 854...

well i know it's like that for US students..
i dont know about canadian students though..
but anumraja stated that the ibcc deducts 20% for Canadian students too..
so the scores might similar to the scores of the US students who didnt take AP classes..
