IGCSE Exams
International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE)

Home > Our Exam Services > IGCSE

IGCSE Exams are offered every May/June and October/November by Cambridge International Examinations, University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate and can be taken at British Council Thailand.

The IGCSE is a balanced international curriculum which is designed to encourage high academic standards through a practical approach to teaching and learning. The exams consist of a variety of tests e.g. oral and listening tests and these are not limited to conventional written papers.

The IGCSE exams are also designed to take account of differing abilities of students; there is a choice between Core and Extended in most subjects. This allows students to be able to choose the most appropriate level papers.

The Core in each subject is within the ability range of a large majority of students. It provides a full overview of the subject and is targeted at students expected to achieve grades C to G.
The Extended in each subject comprises the Core curriculum and the Supplement. It is targeted at those expected to achieve grades A to C. The Supplement describes the extra topics or depth which must be added to the Core to produce the Extended.

Successful candidates receive a certificate which is internationally recognised as equivalent in standard to the British GCSE and international GCE ‘O’ level examinations.

Candidates wishing to enter British Universities are normally required to have 2 or 3 "A" level subjects in addition to 5 IGCSE passes. However, it is strongly advised to check the entrance requirements of each university individually.
