  Hello Shamalan,
  
  The exam fees vary from school to schools, and even different from British Council. You can always register with the exam centre which is nearest you and more convenient to you. We suggest that you pay a visit to your local British Council or search for any registered Cambridge School which accept private candidates here: https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/why-choose-us/find-a-cambridge-school/ to get more information with regards to exam registrations and fees.

Dear IGCSE Centre

I did cambridge O level religious studies in 2015 oct/nov, and IGCSE Maths and English in 2017 oct/nov, I then did art and design IGCSE in 2018 May/June. And I am now doing IGCSE ICT im May/June. All as a privet candidate. Is it okay to spread out the subjects like this? Is it valid as a complete O level qualification?

  Hi Niki,
  
  You are free to spread out your examinations. Once the Cambridge O-level has been awarded it remains valid indefinitely. However, if you are applying for further studies, general guideline is within 13 months. But some colleges/universities do have longer allowance. Please get confirmation from them directly.

  Hi Omi,
  
  You need to complete your O-level or IGCSE or any equivalent in order to proceed to A-level.
  
  The normal process would be: after completing O-level or IGCSE, proceed to any A level/IB/any equivalent qualification, then university. Each country may name it differently. You ought to check with your local exam board, or college.
