I know about GCSEs but they haven't announced anything about iGCSEs. The main reason I wanted GCSEs to be cancelled was because I'm doing further maths edexcel iGCSE which I'm completely ****ed for but it's an iGCSE so I'm worried it may still go ahead. I live in Dubai where normal GCSEs are cancelled too.

under we hear something, assume they are going on as planned. we are a completely separate entity to the UK. so there will be separate discussions for us.

Ok I'll try to assume that but I'm hoping inside they get cancelled too lol. I'm doing mostly GCSEs but iGCSEs for english lit and further maths (I sat english lang and maths last year). I'm predicted nearly all 9s but further maths is a serious problem and I suffer from severe exam anxiety

yeah, it seems everyone has very mixed opinions on this I just hope we get what is best for us. but if it makes you feel better, my gcses/igcses were cancelled and i have my first a level exam and first ever exam tomorrow. i have no experience in how to cope with exam stress or what's it like im essentially going in blind 😂 so i wish i could've done my gcses so i know what it's like i would have more experience in revision techniques etc. but yeah best of luck!! remember take it easy!! and gcses are not the end of the world i promise!!! <33

wait how were your gcses cancelled if you're taking a levels this year?
international student !! we do igsces in y11, international AS level in y12 and international A level in y13
Ah ok I'm international too (dubai) though only 4 of my gcses are igcses. I assumed you meant you were going to do a levels this year not as levels that's why I asked.

I'm also doing IGCSE Edexcel further maths. I think in the next week or so, they should announce the cancellation of IGCSE exams also, because it's the only logical thing to do, considering that there are several countries where students can't even go to school because of the pandemic.

yes I did it, so grateful that aqa acknowledged us international students unlike cie and edexcel who just block us out. if aqa cancels, edexcel will probably cancel.
Good luck with further maths! I did CIE additional maths, and even though it was difficult at first I got a great mark for it. It's very useful too, most of it will bite you again in a level maths so it's good to know the content early

Exactly!! All CIE and Edexcel have been doing is replying to emails with automated replies, but we gotta stay hopeful
Did NEC tell you that IGCSES are cancelled? Someone else told me that igcses are going ahead as normal and only the gcses were cancelled
As of now, they are going ahead as normal. I have filed many complaints and emailed many exam boards as this is just completely unfair. International students missed out on months of learning too but UK students are being given preferential treatment. There would be severe grade inflation in the UK which would negatively impact us. If we were quarantined, we would have to reschedule all exams to the next series during our A level studies. I could go on and on...these people are beyond incompetent.
