Frequently asked questions
Is IGCSE the same as GCSE?
No. GCSE follows the English national curriculum and is set by AQA, Edexcel and OCR. Cambridge IGCSE is an international qualification with its own syllabuses and exam series. The level is similar.
Core or Extended: which should I take?
Extended is needed for the top grades and is the usual choice for students planning A Level or IB in the same subject. Your teacher decides the entry, and a tutor can help you reach the level for Extended.
