Dear IGCSE team,
I’ve got four D’s in physics, Chemistry, Geography and Arts.
Can I still continue to year 12 to do my AS level? Is it considered a pass and will I get the certificates or do I resit the exam?
My son received his IGCSE results as follows: physics F , chemistry E , business studies E , IT C , biology F , mathematic ( without coursework) D, English first language ( oral endorsement ) D …… He is planning to study Business & IT at university what are the subjects he should repeat . Please advice ….
I got my IGCSE results. I did 8 subjects. 7 of them i got a C or above, but Coordinated Science I got a D (58%). Did I pass it? Do I need to retake it to pass to A level even though I am not going to do any of the Sciences in A level?
Hi Loli,
If you’re not going to do any science subjects in the future, you can leave it as it is. But, please be very sure that you do not need this subject in your future study.
hello,i finally got to know my IGCSE results on the website, i took 5 subjects because most of the university in my country allow student who has C or above in 5 subjects but i got D(53) in business studied, personally i think i did well on an exams even though i skipped some of the question but only few of them and both my teacher and I expected C or B, i heard that there is a remark so if i let them remark it again will my results get better scores and how long do I have to wait for the results

Hi Kinzah,
It is considered as pass. But please check what is the minimum grade required for IGCSE if you want to study in the university.
