Just a small question, I've given my AS Chemistry [Edexcel] and Biology [CIE] this May/June session in UAE, by September, I'll be travelling to Egypt & I want to complete my A-levels in these 2 subjects, so is it possible to sit for the A2 course in another school or the british council in another country and then the A-level grade would be combined to one final grade?

Also, what would you recommend: I was thinking of doing the A2 in Oct/Nov for bio and Jan for Chem, or should I leave them both to May/June?
Note, I'll be in my first semester in university in Egypt which means I'll be occupied with studies of course, I'm doing my A-levels because I want to travel abroad, so I'm going to apply for universities outside Egypt at the same time. (It's a complicated story!)

Thanks!  :)

Don't know about CIE ??? , but pretty sure that you can do it for Edexcel...all you have to do when you're applying in Egypt is give them your previous center number and UCI number and your set.. :)

You can do it for CIE too. =D Like Edexcel, your candidate number and center number will simply be quoted on your next statement of entry.

Your University of choice can always ask CIE to provide them with the details of your re-sits.

Many Universities do that nowadays and it can affect your application.
