Gcse english courses

Which exam board would you say is the easiest?
im desperate
I've only done OCR and iGCSE (CIE) and found iGCSE much easier, what do you need help on? I do English at A Level :smile:

I had to retake my GCSE English and the last attempt I took the iGCSE on the Edexcel board (I think it was, can't remember now) the iGCSE was easy as I took a self-study course and never had to do coursework for it :colondollar:

Aw bless, when I did AQA English, I kept getting D's as an overall grade :/ my coursework was absolutely fine (it was a C grade for my coursework) but was just the exam that got me -.- lol

You're welcome :smile: it is doable to get a B on the iGCSE (I managed to get a B on the iGCSE) so I'm sure you'd get a B or above :smile:

Yeah that's fine :biggrin:
