Yeah, IB is the bigger concern on our team. Remember that if APs are the only/main tests that your school offers, that CollegeBoard offers late APs (as well as "Outstanding" aka late late APs) for conflicts. A discussion well ahead of time with CollegeBoard may help alleviate some of the conflicts with the championship.

As for IB, I really don't have any idea. With APs and IBs, 2nd year IB students are averaging 10 exams a year, and they're hitting the Outstanding APs even without FIRST events...
