No prob
I only gave 3 subs this may/June 2017 and I'm gonna give the reamaning two now
Chemistry-A*
Physics- A
English- A
And well I was a private candidate and literally had just 5 months to prepare for these igcses so thats why I didn't achieve that great grades...
And Math and Computer Science are the two remaining ones

Idk 4 eco but 4 add maths u will hav 2 understand the concepts well n u will have 2 make lots of practice frm past exam papers ..... n add maths is not like any other subjects ... u must constantly revise the chapters or u will 4get everything .. ur base must b really good ... u should pay lots off attention when ur teacher is xplaining a method cuz sometimes they can seem a bit confusing .....
Hope it helps

ohh, but you probably wouldn't have much of a problem with the numbers right?

 

[M. Beissaam]

guys, for all the 3 sciences (Bio,Chem & Phy)

what is recommended? Paper 5 or Paper 6? for IGCSE

and tell me which of them gets overall more marks?

Yep I think dat it's better .... for >90 u get 1 >80 u get 2 n so on .....

paper 6, especially if you are doing private, or haven't done any real lab practicals by yourself at school

Unless you have done many experiments thoroughly, then you may want to appear paper 5,if not then stick to paper 6
