Unleash a world of opportunities at Brighton International School!
Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) has served as a benchmark in global education for over three decades. IGCSE is considered the equivalent of the GCSE qualification that students in the United Kingdom take in Year 10-11.
For students in international schools around the world, Cambridge IGCSEs have become the Gold Standard for high school qualifications. IGCSEs signal the completion of secondary school education and are designed for students who wish to progress to A-levels before entering university.
Often, undergraduate programs will specify that incoming students meet certain IGCSE level requirements to gain admission, and top-level schools may require A-level grades. Sometimes, employers may also require applicants to meet minimum requirements in Math and English IGCSEs.
Year 12 & 13 – Cambridge AS & A Level (17 – 18 years of age)
A Level stands for Advanced Level and AS Level stands for Advanced Subsidiary Level. Both A Level and AS Level exams are taken after students have already taken the IGCSE exams and many will have received a diploma from Brighton or elsewhere. IGCSE A Levels are highly specialized, meant for students aiming to enter more competitive and prestigious universities in the European Union and elsewhere in the world. A Levels require approximately 360 hours of guided learning per subject, usually over a two-year period. AS Level exams contains half the content of the corresponding A Level and are normally completed in one year.
The Cambridge International A Level exam is graded on a scale from A* (being highest) to E (the minimum required performance). AS Level exam grades run between grade A (being the highest) to E (the minimum required performance). No A* is possible for AS Level exams.
Universities establish independent entry requirements, and even standards within different departments within universities may differ. Popular majors and courses may require higher grades on the A Level or AS Level Exams, as a prerequisite to entry or acceptance.
Generally, all universities in the United Kingdom require of students three passing grades of C, in three separate A Level subjects, to be considered for admission. However, more competitive programs, such as medical schools, often require grades AAB or even a combination of As and A*s across three subjects. High A Level grades are key for admission in all the world’s top universities.
A-Levels are reported on a grade scale from A* (highest) to E (minimum required performance). There is no A* grade for AS Levels which run from grade A to E.
