Hi,
I am appearing for Combined science 0653, Maths 0580 and English 0500
In maths i'm giving paper 22 and 42. In sciences i'm giving paper 12(MCQ's), 32(Extended theory), 52(practical)
And i'm actually reappearing for 0500(english), in may/june examination i had received a "C" in english as i used common words only.

So, the current senario is that -
In sciences, i know very little physics. I am ok-ok in chemistry and i think that i can do pretty well in biology....
also i need some advice/tips on practical exam

In math, i am not so sure. As i know a little of everything, i can solve past papers till some extent...

And in english, can you all please suggest me a list of complex(common) words which can be used in almost every writing...

I need help in revision as very little time is left....
My math paper 22 is on 29oct and paper 42 is on 5th nov
Science, paper 12 and 32 are on 12th nov and practical is on 6th nov

English paper 22 is on 7th nov and paper 32 is on 10th nov...
Please guys i need help desperately...

Thanks
Harry

You can always achieve a good grade by solving past papers. Do the 2014 papers from :-
maths:-
http://www.gceguide.com/search/label/IGCSE%20%3A%20Mathematics%20%280580%29
combined science:-
http://www.gceguide.com/search/label/IGCSE%20%3A%20Science%20-%20Combined%20%280653%29

Past papers from previous years can be obtained from xtremepapers itself:-
maths:-
http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge IGCSE/Mathematics (0580)/
combined science:-
http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge IGCSE/Science - Combined (0653)/

If you have time, read the examiners report also, as it will give you information of what the examiners require

Also check out the candidate responses, as it will give you a general idea on how to write the answers:-
