very favourable for the DP.

PREPARATION FOR UNIVERSITY and IBDP
The IB’s own research shows that IB students are well-prepared for higher education.
Research on DP students in Canada, the UK and the USA found that the DP’s 4000 word piece of self-directed research approves students’ approach to learning in higher education.
A 2014 study on the IBDP in the USA suggested that students who participated in the DP during high school are more academically adjusted to the expectations of higher education.
