No such thing as a "High School Degree" in the UK, do you mean "graduating highschool" in the US or something else ? In the UK degrees must be awarded by a properly accredited University.

OK sorry what i meant was i want to have the equivalency of high school completion in Canada, so i can find entry level jobs in Canada rather then finding university,
I completed 1 IGCSE subject of business, so in addition to that, i want to see, if having 2 more AS Levels subjects would get me Canadian high school equivalency.

i read on the web.. 5 IGCSE's are the equivalent of US high school graduation, ( not sure about Canada) but the problem is in my country some subjects are not available in IGCSE but rather AS level. my goal is to have high school graduation equivalent of Canada.

o and thanks for the info.

Ok, thanks for the context. Sorry, not my area of experties but perhaps a Canadian will be along in a bit to add a bit of local detail.

Ok, well is it possible to know if 2 AS levels and 1 IGCSE, could be considered as an equivalent to high school graduation in UK Standards?.
