What is the difference between Standard Grade and Int 1 and Int 2?

I'm looking for past papers to do and I keep coming across standard grade and intermediate ones. I have absolutely no clue what the difference is. As far as I can tell, int 2 is the equivalent of nat 5 but the rest of it is really confusing. Can anyone explain please?

Well, I just searched up for the equivalent levels, these are the resultant links (should be of some use!):

Basically the same level with some different content and exam structure

Int 2 = SG Credit = 5
Int 1 = SG General = Nat 4
Access 3 = SG Foundation = Nat 3

I'm oversimplifying it but for past paper purposes this is fine.
