As of 2022, there are as more US high school students enrolled in a Cambridge Advanced AS or A Level course as there are IB students. Despite these increases, many institutions are still unfamiliar with these assessments and how they compare to college courses. This session will provide a brief overview of the Cambridge International program, clarify and national growth, share research into student subsequent course performance, and highlight results from the recent ACE Learning Evaluation.
