I wanna know the difference between head to tail rule and the parallelogram rule, and how to decide what to use when?

Both are same.

I dont know about IGCSE, but my GCE Olevel exam went awesome and both the papers were pretty easy. Especially the ATP, it was like getting marks for free!!

Good to know ure exam went awesome
But cie recently have started making comparatively harder papers for the international students as compared to GCSE exams which r easier(donno abt gce )... And its simply because they don't what us to compete with their kids
So we igcse students need to put in extra effort to obtain a decent grade

 

[Muzammil ahmad]

But the gts for igcse exams
Are also low compared with olevels
Don't worry gts will surely save you.

 

[Muzammil ahmad]

We need 125+/145 for getting A*
While igcse students need only
140+/200 for a*..

 

[fatimaw]

comparatively harder papers for the international students as compared to GCSE exams which r easie

wouldn't tht mean igcse have more value

 

[Hanzalla]

wouldn't tht mean igcse have more value

They all are the same almost, GCSE being the easiest and GCE (Olevels) the hardest and the oldest of the three

actually its mostly 160+/200
but hopefully for this paper the threshold will be low ...most of us found it hard

Yeah Hopefully

What angle did you get?

I'm seriously envying you right now, But god knows if our paper 4 will turn out to be easier than yours.

I still can't believe how easy our P4 was xD
I dont want to make you jealous but even the experiment that came consisted of only 2 marks and was about how to compare different insulating materials.
And most marks were for checking and writing readings off Ammeters and Voltmeters etc
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst!

 

[Hanzalla]

If you have prepared thoroughly, practice past papers whenever you get the chance. If you're confident you can do it!

Thanks,
And no its not like that as IGCSE, GCSE, GCE all three of them are used throughout the world. e.g. Over here in Pakistan Roots Schools Use IGCSE , Frobels uses GCSE, And Other private schools still use GCE.
GCSEs are only easier because their syllabus needs students to rely on their skills rather then memory.

 

[Hanzalla]

It all depends on what your school is trained to teach you, like my school prefers GCE because it thinks that, as it is harder it may be preferred over others (Which is not the case as all of them are considered equal)

 

[Muzammil ahmad]

Hanzalla that experiment was for 2 marks
Right?
