  Hello Hanys,
  There is no “average age” for IGCSE. We have readers over 30 years of age taking IGCSE for career advancement.

  Hi Lavasat,
  Please get this advice from British Council / the exam centre that you wish to register your son as private candidate. Cambridge ICE is a group award that you must obtain from one exam centre. We are not sure if you could split them. It is best to get the confirmation from the exam centre directly.
  
  Just a question, if your son wish to take subjects which are not being offered by his school, why don’t you just consider the “normal” IGCSE certificate? Instead of the group award ICE?
  
  If his school is offering group award, get that with his school, then get additional IGCSE certificates out of his school for other subjects. This, would add strength for him when he is applying for university at a later stage.

  Hi Kathy,
  Unfortunately he can’t combine Coordinated Science with the Triple Science: Biology, Chemistry, Physics. He has to choose either Coordinated Science or Triple Science.
