Re: The IGCSE SocietyIt depends on your sixth form. Why don't you give them a ring or email them?(Original post by ak2109)

Re: The IGCSE SocietyI did the Chemistry 1C paper today, although I'm doing the Chemistry IGCSE. We're not allowed to discuss until 04:30 tomorrow though(Original post by queentamora)
Does anyone do Edexcel IGCSE Double Award Sciences? Chem today and Bio a few days ago and Physics on Wednesday?
Or CIE Maths Extended?
I also did the English paper with the detective and thought it was soooo boring! The Lit questions were easy though.

Re: The IGCSE SocietyI know people do it earlier, year 8-10. Personally I go to a grammar school, a very traditional one and this is not a language studied in school. Does this affect this query in anyway? Also, if it isn't possible, is it possible to do it somewhere else? (Without leaving my school as it has a sixth form). I mean for example somewhere in my free time?(Original post by Mazzini)
It depends on your sixth form. Why don't you give them a ring or email them?

Re: The IGCSE SocietyOh man, I can't remember. I suppose that's different. I do the IGCSE but Double Award. The waiver I signed said 10 pm my clock, which 2h40m ago so I'm not breaking any rules.(Original post by Mazzini)

Re: The IGCSE Society
Hey! I'm sitting my IGCSEs in a couple of years, and I'm half-excited half-nervous now that the Exam time's here
Best of Luck to all of you!
For all of you sitting (CIE) English 1st Language, Literature, History and (this is unusual) Arabic 2nd Language, can I have your opinions on the papers?
My batch will be the first at our school to sit 1st Lang and Lit, and I'm the only person in my year who'll take History and Arabic.
And NOBODY is encouraging me... How were the papers? -
Re: The IGCSE SocietyI thought it was 12 midnight for edexcel morning exams - but to be honest I'm not sure..(Original post by ak2109)

You may be able to - are there any local evening classes? Perhaps you could ask one of the teachers at your school for a bit of extra help?(Original post by ak2109)

I've done CIE English 1st Language and Literature. Language is just jumping through hoops (LOADS of exam technique) and literature isn't too hard once you get the hang of it.
Oh yes! Silly me(Original post by taylorswiftx)

It is twelve midnight that you can discuss after because it was a morning exam. -

I've not really checked locally and it is definitely not a subject any teacher can help with in school. None of them will know the language. :P -
