Ohaider!

Ha, this controversy has no end! Well, I'm somewhat in the same position as you. I'm doing Alevels though, Aced My IGCSE but alevels is so damn tough, atleast for me it is.
I don't want a B in my Report Card, so opting for The Oct/Nov Session, and trust me its all the same. After these Variants stuff came into play, I believe all the papers are of same difficulty.

Incase A paper becomes tough, well average students will do bad, and then threshold is lowered and everything is fixed anyways. Just focus on your studies and go for Oct/Nov, it isnt hard just check out the PastPapers and decide for yourself!

Heyy! Glad to my C Grade English helped someone! ^.^ .
Yeah, according to my theory, well not certified by anyone though, that most of the students are kinda weak who apply for Oct/Nov, like us lol, So the thresholds hopefully should be low. I'm just kidding, but no seriously I hope it is. You welcome serah!
P.S I reside In Jeddah too /m\

Same here, No point in rushing subjects and being unsatisfied with your results. The end justifies the means.. =]
And You welcome!!


TMI i know but still; I got A* in Chem, Phys, Bio and A for Maths In IGCSE. But In Alevels Im getting DCBD.. LOL. When you get your holidays, don't pardy and waste your time, do keep in touch with studies you both.
