I do 10. At my school, you either take 12, 10 or 8, depending on how many as levels you do early. A few people are finishing off their RE gcse to get an extra half, and a couple of people are doing art, music out of school due to timetabling.

I take 10 subjects but I get 9 grades (double award science) 
Its impossible to do anymore at my school.
Its impossible to do anymore at my school.You do get two grades for science, you can easily get two different grades.

Sorry but I'm confused. Perhaps you've misunderstood what I mean by double award science? I study all three sciences seperately and do three exams but then the score is averaged and I get a double grade e.g. AA, BB, CC, DD etc. It's good in that you study all three in a little less detail but then the negative is that if you're good at (for example) Biology and Physics and terrible at Chemistry, the Chemistry will drag your mark down.
12 and OCR FSMQ add maths

Well, I do this with AQA and you can get two different grades, one for the Core set of exams and one for the additional.
They don't have to be the same, you could get an A for Core and a B for Additional.
But anyway, I get 10 GCSE grades and no IGCSE's. I didn't even know they existed until about last week!
