Heyyyyy everyone ^_^
I'm planning to resit the following subjects in the IGCSE scheme; but I'm wondering if I could have any recommendations on which examination board to choose, as I'm a tad bit unsure which (whether it be Edexcel, OCR etc)
Chemistry
Biology
Physics
Is it true with IGCSE's that there are no controlled assessments or coursework?
Also is there a particular exam for each of the sciences that'll give me 3 IGCSE grades instead of 1 or 2?
All comments are welcomed!
Many thanks!

Many thanks! So for each IGCSE board there's no coursework? It goes for all other subjects as well? English, Mathematics etc?
But I'm still wondering which board to choose for Biology, Chemistry & Physics; whether it be aqa, OCR, Edexcel etc

I think it's best to do igcse science with Edexcel as there is no coursework.

For maths and English there is no coursework if you do Edexcel igcses. For English it is best to do Igcse english language b.

OCR and AQA don't offer IGCSEs. The choice is CIE or Edexcel and I'd go with Edexcel as more centres offer them.
