What if I get a 49.25 in business studies? Is that a passing grade? Do I pass the class?

  Hi Thais,
  
  Yes, but first you need to locate any schools which accept private candidates here: https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/i-want-to/find-a-cambridge-school/ , or simply register with your local Brithish Council.
  
  Once you?ve registered for IGCSE, we suggest to practise lots of past papers. Start doing revision based on the latest syllabus: (https://www.igcsecentre.com/cambridge-igcse-surebjects-syllabuses) and practice with the latest past exam papers (https://www.igcsecentre.com/cambridge-igcse-past-exam-papers/). Start with the latest paper as they have the newest syllabus format and continue with the older one date back from 5 to 10 years. Then, revise on the most common mistake your son always seem to make.
  
  You can check our A* online revision courses. These had helped numerous students to score A*: IGCSE online courses here: https://www.igcsecentre.com/cambridge-igcse-revision-courses/ . You can also check out other resources we have:

Hi my IGCSE exams will start on the 2nd of May, which is about 10 days from now. I was wondering if anyone here could help me with how the grading system works? When I do a mock examination in school, my school never adds the “weighing grade” to the final mark of the subject but on the IGCSE website it states it does apply weighing into the final grade? This has really confused me as to how to properly calculate my final examination mark of a paper I did as revision at home. I hope somebody here can help me with this.

  Hi Gabriella,
  
  First, relax. Make sure you?re well rested before you sit for an examination.
  Then, do targeted revision. Revise on the most common mistakes you always seem to make. Read and annotate your textbook for the questions you got wrong. This is because you won?t have much time to go through the whole textbook. Then, re-do those questions you got wrong.
