Hi if i have finished my O level exam but i do not want to proceed to A level, what other alternative i have for pre U?
Hi CK,
You may consider Cambridge Pre-U, or IB, or Cambridge AICE Diploma, or Foundation courses from universities, etc etc… There are lots of choices. 🙂
Do i have to take all the 3 subjects of science like biology chemistry physics or can we choose 2 or 1 only?
Hi Shahd,
You may choose the subject that is required as the entry requirement for university. Thus, we strongly encourage you to first check with the university on the required subjects.
Hi
1.Is Bengali as a first language available in IGCSE?
2. If a child takes up Japanese as the first language then would he be required to take up a Foreign language and can he take English as a Second Language?
Hi Archana,
1. Bengali as First Language is not being offered in IGCSE.
2. He/she must choose one subject from the English group, can be English First Language or Second Language. He/she can also take up other foreign first/second languages. The foreign languages are your choice.
hi there. Its my first time to take IGSCE classes doing five subjects. If I work very hard for you think I can make it for may/June exams.
Hi Tan,
You do not need to work hard for us 😉
However, we do not think it is feasible to write the exam in the May/June series. As you have only 5 months to learn all the syllabus. Perhaps you can try to take one/two subjects in May/June, then continue the rest in the Oct/Nov series.
