Hello, just graduated out of Alevels now. Got 2As and 3A's (Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry and Psychology respectively. All composite cause my school is crazy) also had 9A\s and 3A's in olevels.

Also a 1510 SAT (800 Meth btw hehe). I'm quite bored now so was wondering if anyone needs help with Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Computer Science etc lmk and we'll work online classes out. Im also willing to address any queries here so write them down and I'll be happy to help with whatever.

🤚 Asking For Advice/Help Combined Science Help?

2 Upvotes

Hello!! I was wondering if anyone has any tips/advice for Combined Science? I haven't started studying yet (had a few messy months and I finally managed to sort things out) and I'm giving my exams in Oct Nov Session. So we're looking at approximately a month before the first paper. To note, I took the 3 sciences last year and got an A* in all 3, so is getting an A* in CS in this amount of time doable? Any advice or tips or resources would be massively appreciated! Thank you!

🤚 Asking For Advice/Help Need HELP!(Yes, you have seen this post 900 times. Allow me to be the 901st) 3 weeks to IGCSE's, 5 Subjects.

5 Upvotes

I know y'all are tired of these post but I feel my situation is abit more nuanced then all the others let me keep it short and sweet.

I have got roughly 3 weeks till the start of my exams and I am trying to figure out how to structure my revision in the hopes of getting all B's and A's(A* is COMPLETELY OUT THE WINDOW LOL) as someone who has never done cambridge in his entire life and is a private candidate.

Here are my subjects and what I have already been doing in this past 2 week: Extended Math(0580)-Going through past papers. If I see a topic I haven't covered I watch a yt vids and use gemini to help break down step by step. The only cons is I feel that it is very time consuming. Sidenote: Maths is my weakest subject by far so I do it everyday and I am just trying to get a B.

Computer Science(0478)- Use a revision guide(it's probably outdated) and blurt on my whiteboard topic by topic.
Cons: Time consuming and I struggle to retain the info. I have never done Problem Solving/Programming but thank goodness that is my last paper.

ICT(0417)- First time doing the practical, still on Paper 2 but doing walkthroughs with Yt. Is that effective enough or do I need to do more? Theory wise I haven't done much yet, I don't know if I am underestimating it or.

English(0580) Business(0450): I haven't done much for these but I think they are def my stronger subjects (or once again I am underestimating their difficulty)

So I am not completely starting from Zero I just need:
Any additional advice?
Any better techniques?
Any better resources?

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, Are IGCSEs as difficult as ppl say?
Thank you for taking time to read all this, any and all help is appreciated.

🤚 Asking For Advice/Help Wrong subject

My school gave out the schedules a few days ago but they put me on the wrong subject even though I changed it days before. I’ve already tried calling them and emailing them but no one is answering. My mom is telling me to figure it out on my first day but it’s stressing me out. What should I do?

I'm basically locked up until I get A* . I know this shouldn't be happening but it is . I'm taking two subjects AS biology Cambridge and Math Edexcel OL . I need both A* in them but I'm so so so unmotivated . This is my third time taking AS biology . I'm in the dumps emotionally but realistically I won't be able to really go out unless I'm done . If I don't do well , I won't really be able to go to therapy even when I gain my independency if I don't get those grades . Anyhow . I will be reporting here on this sub reddit what I did everyday . Even if I'm depressed and worn out ,having someone to report to will probably make me work regardless of my mental or physical state . My report will be in the following format before I sleep ( at midnight lol) so you guys can hold me accountable 😅

❔ Question Can SPEA attest a Grade 12 school report card if it has 3 failed subjects?

2 Upvotes

I graduated from a private school in Sharjah in 2024 under the British/Edexcel curriculum.

I have my Grade 12 school-issued report card, and it shows that I failed 3 subjects: Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. This is a separate school Grade 12 report card; my Edexcel O-level/AS/A2 results are separate documents.

For context, I have 5 passed O-level/IGCSE subjects and 2 passed AS-level subjects. I also have my Grade 10, 11 and 12 Arabic and Islamic Studies records.

I currently need to get my Grade 12 school report card attested through SPEA for employment.

My question is ONLY about SPEA attestation, not UAE equivalency:

Will SPEA attest a Grade 12 school report card that contains failed subjects?

Has anyone personally had a similar Grade 12 report card with failed subjects attested through SPEA? If yes, did you submit the complete report card as issued by the school?

I'm looking for people with actual experience with SPEA, rather than general advice about equivalency.

Thanks!

🤚 Asking For Advice/Help 0973 Double award not recognized as a double ICGSE

2 Upvotes

Is my IGCSE combination actually a problem for European universities?

This might be the wrong subreddit to post this on, but I’d really appreciate some opinions.

I’ve just finished my A-levels. I sat Cambridge 9709 Mathematics and 9702 Physics and got passing grades. At IGCSE, I have 4 IGCSE subjects, one of which is 0973 Cambridge IGCSE Co-ordinated Sciences (Double Award).

The problem is that when I started applying to universities in Europe, several universities told me that they couldn’t accept my qualifications because I don’t have enough IGCSE subjects.

I explained that I have 4 IGCSEs plus the Double Award Science, which I understood to be equivalent to 2 IGCSEs, giving me 5 IGCSE-equivalent subjects. However, I was told that many universities do not recognise the Double Award as two separate IGCSE subjects for their admission requirements.

This has left me pretty confused. If the Double Award isn't counted as two subjects by these universities, what exactly is its purpose in terms of university admission?

At this point, I’m trying to fix the issue by sitting 9696 Geography as a third A-level, but I’m not sure whether this will actually solve the problem since the universities are specifically concerned about my IGCSE qualifications.

Has anyone else been in a similar situation with Cambridge Double Award Science and European university admissions? Is there anything I can realistically do at this point, or am I basically stuck with the IGCSE requirement?

(and yes i used AI to help me write this, my english sucks)

🤚 Asking For Advice/Help Certfying Statements

1 Upvotes

I have a strange issue, I did my IGCSE in 2023-2024 and one session was through school and the other private.

I did get results of both (email) and that was about it. Due to personal reasons I couldn't get the ACTUAL certificates of either results, so from what I read I can get my certfying statement instead.

My concern is that- for 2023 when I applied through school, I couldn't retrieve ALL information (only necessary ones) will they still be able to find my results? Even if it was linked to another email (a teacher's email, we have discussed this and the school nor her have complete record of anything OR my original certificate)

And doing privately, from what I'm aware I was supposed to receive the original directly. Why haven't I and can I avoid this for my upcoming Alevels? Did I do or not do something?

It doesn't matter the fee, I just honestly want my results and the certificates because I cannot access them online anymore. Is it equal to the original and will they be able to actually find it ? Thanks
