What is the IGCSE qualification?
IGCSE stands for International General Certification of Secondary Education. It is among the most recognised secondary-level qualifications for students aged 14-16. In many countries, IGCSE is a compulsory qualification for international school students. Universities and colleges specifically look for the IGCSE qualification as their entry requirement in higher education.
Today, the IGCSE serves as the global version of the GCSE, offered by esteemed institutions called awarding bodies. These awarding bodies include Cambridge Assessment, Pearson Edexcel, Oxford AQA and a few more. Although there is no significant difference between IGCSE qualifications offered by these different awarding bodies, the core remains consistent and they all have their unique strengths.
