    • Hello Kiru,

      If you are not going to do art in IB, then the grade of art in IGCSE will not affect your entry requirement.

  2. Can you please list out the schools which has the approval from IGCSE in Coimbatore (District), Tamilnadu (State), India. My son will be completing 3 years on May 6th 2015, will he be eligible for LKG this year.

    • Hello there,

      Please check this “another language” for A-Level, does it require the foundation from IGCSE? If yes, then you ought to take this “another language” during your IGCSE.

  4. I’m in Pakistan, i gave a few GCSE Papers and a few IGCSE, willfhat cause any problems in the future?
    Also, I was scared about extended Mayh so i chose IGCSE Core Math(0580). I heard that the maximum grade we can get in it is a C but sill that cause any problems later on seeing that is actually shows A on my result statement? Or willit say C kn the maximum only, on my result statement?

    • Hi Sheraan,

      When you take the Core paper, the highest grade you could obtain is grade C. It won’t appear A on your result slip, it will still be C 🙂

      GCSE and IGCSE are completely different exam board. They can’t be counted as one. You must have the necessary and complete IGCSE/GCSE subjects as your university entry requirement.
