Dear IGCSE Team,
I am in 9th grade (the starting of it). Should I start worrying about my IGCSE Exams? Are the IGCSE Exams hard and is it possible to get a A star?
Thank you

Dear IGCSE Team,
Regarding the IGCSE Subjects Syllabus, it said that it has been updated until 2023-25 however when I checked, few of the subjects were not updated until 2023-25. Could you please check once again for all the subjects and update it to 2023-25 as soon as possible? Could you also please check for Cambridge O Level Subjects Syllabus, Edexcel IGCSE Subjects Syllabus, and Cambridge AS and A Level Subjects Syllabus to see if they are updated or not? I hope its not too much work. I hope you can check for all these (IGCSE Subjects Syllabus, Cambridge O Level Subjects Syllabus, Edexcel IGCSE Subjects Syllabus, Cambridge AS and A Level Subjects Syllabus).
Thank you
