What is the difference between Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge O Level and Cambridge International A Level? I am an international student, so I would be very grateful if you could explain it.

O level and IGCSE are roughly equivalent level 2 qualifications studie for at year 10 and 11, typically taken at end of year 11 aged about 16. You might as well do IFCSE if choosing between the two.

A level is level 3 and what unis want. Taken end of year 13 normally 18. Harder, more in depth and a lot more work
