Xcode / Visual Studio question

Hello all. I'm currently taking Data Structures and it is my first experience with C++. We have an assignment due Monday and our instructor told us we can use whatever compiler we like, but the grading will be done on Visual Studio, and any code we write must be adjusted to work properly on Visual Studio.

Does anyone know if there is a way to get Xcode to compile like Visual Studio? And if not, does anyone know just how different Xcode is compared to VS? Is it completely different or are there just minor differences? TIA for your help.
As long as you're writing in standard C++ (no compiler extensions, no external libraries), the particular compiler is irrelevant.
Although a valid question would be which VS version they are talking about, since that will determine which C++11 features are supported.
Thanks bud.
