DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CAMBRIDGE IGCSE AD O LEVELS:
There is some noted difference between Cambridge IGCSE and O Levels that students must understand in order to know what must be good for them to opt.
| Cambridge IGCSE | O Levels |
|---|---|
| Cambridge IGCSE is aimed for a wide range of students with grades awarded from A* (highest grade) to G (lowest grade). There is a core and extended curriculum available in some subjects | Cambridge O level candidates are only awarded grades from A* to E, with A* being the highest achievable grade |
| The Cambridge IGCSE uses a variety of assessment techniques to test oral and practical skills through initiative and problem solving along with knowledge and understandings | The focus of the O level languages is mainly on the reading and writing skills. Moreover, there are more restricted practical test options in Cambridge O levels sciences. |
| A course work option is available in Cambridge IGCSE for many syllabuses allowing ‘Centers’ an element of personal choice and giving teachers the chance to share in the process of assessment. | O levels offers fewer coursework options as some of the syllabuses it offers were developed according to the needs of the locals such as minority languages. |
