AP and IB Courses
AP and IB coursework proves university-level achievement, something that SAT scores cannot.
Overview
Why It Matters
Taking writing-intensive AP and IB courses will set you apart from other international applicants
Many international students excel at the maths and sciences, but writing-intensive AP and IB courses require extensive English fluency. ThinkSTEP helps students prove beyond their TOEFL scores that they have superior English capabilities.
ThinkSTEP students learn the RAC method for reading texts and writing responses in AP and IB exams:
READ: Understand a text’s key points with minimal effort and time
ANALYZE: Learn to compare and contrast multiple texts in order to create and defend an evidence-based thesis
COMMUNICATE: Synthesize your reading and analysis into a coherent, persuasive essay
