salamo 3alekoum :)

well...this is my first year for british council exams so i need help or advice from an OLD IGCSE student that has finished every level in it :D

most of the people and even my teachers told me that the best number of subjects to take this year (year 10) is 4 subjects and 5 at max :)

my parents is not forcing me to take SEVEN subjects but they feel that i can and i asked my teachers, they told me many people is taking 7 subjects in year 10 and finishing O level early

i feel that i can do 5 at max, the 3 subjects that i will leave this year is Business Studies, English (Second Language) and ICT (since they are easy so i can do them confidencly)

well, they say and feel that i am good at both English and ICT (and i already wont take business this year), because if i finished O level and AS level in 2 years i will be able to enter college early and if they didnt accept me at college , i will come back to take year 12 and take A level subjects to high my grade and enter college and i know that they will accept me :)

if anyone knows what is better for me, plz just say it :)

Thanks :D

well that entirely depends on ur preferences.. i knw some ppl who gave 6 subjects in jun 11 while others gave 8 subjects.. so if ur confident that u can do great in the 7 subjects then go 4 it so that u can have a chance in the end 2 resit for any subject that u didnt score good enough at.. Good Luck :D
btw ur egyptian right? :)
