Hello Haitham,
We are very sorry if we got to your message late. It is not wise to ask us questions here when you need the answer within 24 hours. We have got hundreds of messages a day, and it is simply impossible to answer everyone in time.
Can we skip 13 grade (AS level)
And join collage

Mariam
Hi Mariam,
No, you can’t. AS/A Level or any other equivalent is the required entry requirement for colleges and universities.
Will igsce be difficult if you transfer from cbse to igsce (class 10)

Hi Mariam,
We do not think it should be a problem, if you have learnt all the basic of sciences, English, Maths, etc etc…
Please what do you mean by core subjects? Do I have to do those five subjects before I am able to get into college? And do I have to do two languages?
Hello Samuel,
You don’t have to do 2 languages. English is the primary subject.
Core subjects mean the fundamental subjects you need for IGCSE level.
I must take math?
Yes, Maths is one of the core subjects.
Hi dears
I’d like to firstly thank you for your support for my son since he Is a special case who needs special arrangements for his exams and he is doing fine so far
My question is there any restrictions on the number of entries that he can do to improve his grades in certain subjects? I mean I heard that his max number of entries is 5 successive ones only and if he do more he will lose the first entry grades in which he achieved 2As& 1B
Hi Omar,
You are most welcome!
You can re-sit the papers as many times as you like. However, we do not think you could resit for too many times, as you need to advance 🙂
He won’t loose any grades. He can choose which grade to use as his application.
