If I retake edexcel igcse accounting after completing advanced level accounting will I have to take advanced level accounting again because I retake igcse accounting
Hi Arnob,
As far as we know, you do not need to retake A Level if your A Level certificates are within the last 2 or 3 years when you apply for further studies. Some universities require A Level results to be within a certain timeframe of applying. Would you mind confirming with your chosen university about their requirements?
If you wish to improve your A Level grade then you are free to retake the exams.
We hope this helps. Thank you.
I have received grade e in accounting igcse edexcel but i have to register for advanced level accounting because grade e is acceptable for advanced level registration. However I need to retake igcse accounting again but after completing advanced level accounting for improving grades and for personal satisfaction so is it acceptable and will British council and Pearson will accept it . but will I have to take advanced level accounting again just because I will retake igcse accounting after completing advanced level accounting ?
Hi Arnob,
As far as we know, British Council can accept your retake entry for iGCSE Accounting even after completing Accounting at A Level.
Our advice is to retake it within 13 months, especially if you plan to gain university entrance. As some universities only accept certificates that are 13 months apart between the first and last exam.
We suggest you also check out with your preferred university if you need to retake A Level. Some universities require A Level results to be within a certain timeframe of applying. For example, your A Level certificates should be within the last 2 or 3 years.
We hope this helps. Thank you.
I did not taken maths igcse edexcel so can I register for edexcel accounting and business studies advanced level. Will British council and Pearson accept my advanced level registration .
Hi Arnob,
In general, there won’t be any problems with the exam registration if you did not take Maths at iGCSE level. But we have also learned from your past comments that you received a grade of E at iGCSE Accounting. We strongly suggest that you check with your exam centre if they have grade requirements for A Level.
Furthermore, we strongly suggest that you consider taking Maths. Maths is usually part of most universities’ entry requirements.
We hope this helps. Thank you.
I have failed in accounting igcse but I need to register for edexcel accounting a level after completing a level accounting I will retake igcse accounting . so will pearson edexcel and British council accept my advanced level accounting registration or its against the rules of Pearson and British council
Hi Arnob,
Pearson may have grade entry requirements for A Level. We suggest that you confirm this with your exam centre.
If you read the Accounting syllabus, it is stated under the Prior learning and other requirements that “Students who would benefit most from studying these qualifications are likely to have a Level 2 qualification such as an International GCSE in Accounting at grades 9 to 4 or A* to C.”
Thank you for your understanding.
What is combinig results in edexcel and I have taken 5 subjects including accounting and maths but I need to complete advanced level accounting and business studies first and then retake igcse accounting and maths I got e in accounting igcse and fail in maths so how will my results combine . is there any difficulty to combine my results for this situation
Hi Arnob,
Combining results means that when you sit for iGCSE in multiple exam series and use the certificates to gain university entrance. Some universities only accept certificates that are 13 months apart.
For example, if you first sat for IGCSE last June 2021, you need to retake Accounting and Maths on or before the June 2022 exam series. The certificates will be within 13 months between the first and last iGCSE exams.
We hope this helps. Thank you.
