  Hi Muhammad,
  You can first try to apply with your local secondary school certificate, if you have got good grades.
  
  Otherwise, yes, definitely you can obtain IGCSE certificates and apply to colleges.

  Hi Jack,
  Most of the schools in the US know about IGCSE grading. They would know how to convert your scores into their system. You can always ask the school that you are going to apply to, and get the confirmation from them.

Hi
Will I lose marks if I don’t give my answer correct to 3 significant figures for Mathematics (0580) and Additional mathematics(0606)?

  Hi Akshi,
  You must always follow the instruction of the question. If the question requires 3 significant figures, then you must provide your answer in 3 significant figures. If you failed to do that and the question specified that, then you won’t get be awarded full marks.

  Hi Muhammad,
  Yes, definitely you can take the IGCSE certification. Just head to your local British Council and get more information on the exam registration.
