Hi IGCSE team, I am taking part in the mathematics exams this may/June. The 3h and 4h one. At what age does one usually take part in these exams because I am just 13 and is it one of this age that you take part in these exams? Or I am just more brilliant that some students? PS. I am also really nervous and really badly want to get an A star. Do you have any tips for me?
It would be much appreciated

Hello Jessica,
You can sit for the exam at any age, if you are a private candidate. If you’re attached to a school, you might need to follow the school’s year. Just head over to your local British Council and register yourself for the exams.
