    Applying to university with IGCSE
    Is it possible to apply to any European universities with just IGCSE? I'm asking as I did IB and failed miserably and can't afford to re-write. I actually did quite decent in IGCSE so I Was hoping to apply with those, if it helps I'd like to study for a Bachelor of Arts and nothing fancy like medicine, engineering etc lol.

    Thanks in advance

    I wouldn't have thought so, as IGCSE are only level two qualifications, you need level 3 qualifications to get in, so something like the IB/A Levels / Level 3 BTEC.
