    I don't know much about IB and whether IB schools are a good fit for gifted children. We are considering school options and one would offer IB from primary through high school.

    Anyone have any experience with or opinion about IB?

    I have heard that IB is more writing intensive than AP even for STEM subjects someone with more experience can chime in. This could be a concern if you have a DC that doesn't enjoy writing.
