  Hi Arpit,
  Yes definitely you could re-sit the 2 subjects. Please register yourself now with your local British Council in order to sit for the exams in the coming November examination session.

    Hi, I sat for my BGCSE final examination in 2012, they were not very good. I would like to retake Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. I will use those to apply for University next year. Is it possible to do any exams early next year?

      Hi Duncan,
      We believe you are referring to “IGCSE”? As we do not know what is “BGCSE”.
      
      You can always resit any subject in any examination series. Just head over to your local British Council and find out more on the next exam dates.

      Yes you could. However, you must first find out if the subjects you would like to re-sit are available for that examination series.

  Hi Karma,
  They are considered grades obtained. It is up to the university/college to decide on the minimum grade that they need.

Hi IGCSE,

I have a friend that did her IGCSE examination recently. Apparently you can’t get a mark above 60%.
Is this true or was she misinformed. I would really appreciate the knowledge about this as her dream is to study in England, and i really want to help her get there.

Thank you for your time 🙂

  Hi Dieter,
  This is a false information. Just look at how many A* candidates we have got here. 🙂
