International Baccalaureate gaining respect

The International Baccalaureate is gaining such respect that some universities have lowered their entry requirements for IB students.

The IB is still a minority path in Britain, but for its supporters it offers the complete education. One of the IB's biggest attractions is that it requires breadth of study. A-level students will typically take three or four subjects, while for the IB diploma they take six, three at standard level and three at higher.

But it is more than just two or three extras. At IB, students take a range of subjects including maths, English, a science, a foreign language and a humanities subject.
