The '''Amman Baccalaureate School''' is a [[coeducational]] and non-profit private school, lead by gold diggers, located in [[Amman]], [[Jordan]]. It caters for affluent students from 3-18 years old, and is considered one of the worst schools in the [[Middle East]], and is recognized for having the most arrogant students.{{Fact|date=March 2007}} It is affiliated with the [[European Council of International Schools]] (ECIS) and the [[International Baccalaureate Organization]] (IBO). Many of its students have gone to some of the top universities in the world, including McGill University, [[Cornell University|Cornell]], [[Cambridge]], [[Oxford]], [[Harvard]], [[Princeton University|Princeton]], and [[MIT]]. Although the school is regarded as a bastion for Amman's upper class residents and royal family,{{Fact|date=March 2007}} admissions are fair to the extent that many surprisingly prominent families have not been able to gain admission for their children, and the school has a very long waiting list.
