  1. SABIS Allowed Us To Start Taking External Subjects At 9th Grade. High Universities Require 10-12 Good Passes. And this is kind of impossible. So Will the sabis system give us an advantage or disadvantage?

  2. Hi! I’m a 15 yo Singaporean student taking the GSCE (O level) this month and in November. I think I didn’t do well for my math exam last week. Is it possible to re take only 1 subject (math) as a private candidate next year? Also, is it compulsory to enrol into a private school in order to register as a private candidate? Hope you’ll reply soon 🙂

    • Hi Alex,
      You can always sit for one subject as private candidate with any local British Council. You do not have to enrol into a private school. You can always study at home.

    • Hi Sara,
      First of all, you must find out from your school, which exam board are they offering. Is it IGCSE or O Level or ??

      ICE is a group award for Cambridge IGCSE. You may find out more about ICE here: https://www.igcsecentre.com/what-is-cambridge-ice/

      Once you know which exam board your school is offering, you can then decide on what are the subjects combination you can take in order to qualify for ICE. You must also make sure that you have requested to register for ICE during your exam registration.

    i saw some of them last year but i don’t remember now

  5. Hello would like to focus on one common problem faced by igcse students going India.getting admission in universities in India after a level is difficult since they need a equivalence certificate from Delhi.why can’t this certificate be available easily.many students drop igcse system when they go India.please let me know some colleges in India who give direct admission after submitting the a level certificate in igcse.it is not affordable for every student to go UK for university.when igcse has opened so many schools in India why not universities.we would love to send our kids.

    • Hi Keerthy,
      We do not have any list for universities in India. It would be best if you can check with the Indian government in this.
