I’ve learned advanced things much faster than a teacher could have taught me!
“I am really enjoying Skolatis! It is very helpful. I feel that the way you teach the subjects are very helpful and aid in helping people learn more complicated things. For example I’m a lot ahead in chemistry and biology. I’ve learned many more advanced things much faster than a teacher could have taught me it. Skolatis has really helped me improve in chemistry and biology!”

Respected IGCSE Centre,
What is the benefit of getting IGCSE learner award in a subject?
Does this makes easy to apply to number 1 universities like Cambridge?
Hi,
The IGCSE Learner Award is to recognise exceptional learner achievement in Cambridge examinations around the world. The primary purpose of these awards is to celebrate and recognise the success of high-performing Cambridge learners. You can read more here: https://www.cie.org.uk/cambridge-for/teachers/outstanding-cambridge-learner-awards/
While getting the Learner Award will give you some brownie points, it does not make it easier to apply to any top universities, especially Cambridge or any Ivy League universities. This is because these universities, sometimes, require more than just impressive grades. You will need to check with the universities on their admission requirement.
Respected IGCSE Team,
What kind of brownie points do you mean? For example?
Hoping to her from you soon,
Regards
For instance, extracurricular activities 🙂

Hi Jake,
We are trying our best to have the papers uploaded before the June exam series. In the meantime, you can revise using the older past exam papers.
Dear IGCSE Centre,

Hi Kushal,
It has been updated. Please check again.
Respected IGCSE,
can we use informal words in english speaking 0510/51.
Hi Sakina,
Depending on what you?re speaking about, you can use informal words such as can?t, don?t, it?s etc… However, you can?t use ?mobile text words? such as gonna, dunno, gotcha, etc? You will need to pay attention to your grammar and sentence structures. You will also be assessed according to how well you can:
? communicate clearly, accurately and appropriately
? convey information and express opinions effectively
? employ and control a variety of grammatical structures
? demonstrate knowledge of a range of appropriate vocabulary
? engage in and influence the direction of conversation
? employ suitable pronunciation and stress patterns.
You can read more about what you can/cannot do, what you?re expected to do from the latest syllabus here: https://www.skolatis.com/cambridge-igcse-subjects-syllabuses/

Hi IGCSE,
When can you upload the Feb/March 2017 exam papers for all the subjects. I am sitting for May/June papers. Please expedite. Would appreciate. Left only four more weeks for the Exam . Anxiously waiting.
Hi,
We do not have a fixed schedule for uploading past papers. However, we will try our best to upload them before the June series exams.
hi
can i use eraseable pens for my IGCSE final exams
Hi Pranav,
It is not advisable to use erasable pen as the ink would get smudged or blurred out during the handling. If your answers were blurred out during the scanning, you will lose lots of precious marks. Just use normal black or dark blue ink pen – do not try to ?test? the examiners. This is your future, just follow the instructions.
You may find it is stated clearly on every exam papers that, ?Write in dark blue or black pen.?. So just use dark blue or black pen.
