  1. And please let me know what profession should I choose in future keeping in mind my grades. And what subjects should I choose in Alevels for that. I personally want to become a pilot or a doctor but my father is against Air Force. And please tell me in this may/June 2015 grades were given on which percentage e.g 75 above B, 65 above C etc

    • Hi Manahil,

      You should choose your profession based on what you like to do, and what you can do best to provide benefits to others. Not choosing the course based on your grades. Grades don’t tell you who you are. 🙂

I got A in Urdu as second language. I got C in English language and 6Bs in Maths,Physics,Biology,Chemistry,Pak Studies and Islamiyat.

      • Hi Manahil,
        In order to get scholarship, it is usually straight A*. But we do not want to discourage you, and you should definitely try to apply the scholarship with the respective university or college.

  3. Hi, I got my IGCSE results today and I passed all of my subjects apart from Art and Design. However, there was an extra one called ICE and I got MERIT in it so I wanna know if that’s good n could it be better??

    • Hi Asim,
      It is good 🙂

      Your result is as it is. So, please don’t think what could be better, because you cannot change it. Unless you are thinking of resitting the exams.

  4. Hello, my son received his results yesterday. He passed 6 which were C and above. He also had 2XDs in Math and French the scores were 50 plus. Are these still passes? But it means he cannot progress in either unless he has a C Pass . Am I right? Many thanks for your advice. I picked up on your recommendation on the revision Maths site. I shall pass it on to him.

    • Hi Fiona,
      Maths is one of the Core subjects. Therefore, it is vital to obtain at least Grade C. Some of the universities entry requirements will still look at your grades in IGCSE before granting admission.
