Thank youfor reply.

Yes a C in As level English shoud work since even at Olevel/IGCSE
usually a B/C grade is accepeted by most universities as equivalent to IELTSl particularly in UK.
Yes, even IELTS/TOEFL are accepted.Yes englsh grade is considered.
Moreove, in UK an 'A' grade is considered by most univesiteis as very good. NOt all demand A grades many would agree on B/C at Alevles in 3 required subjects. You can visit any UK university website to get basic information.

Now plz. tell me a simple thing. What do the CIE examiners provide in practicals of Physics when circuits knowledge is tested. I particualry want some idea of the resistors they provide? Do they provide a circuit board? What is the size of resistors?Tiny?for exampel if 47ohm ressitors conected in series?then which resistor will teh student get?
Thank you. Reply pleez.
Good bye.
Do not hesitate to ask more. ...
Take care

They can give any type of resistors. They can give a small wire as a resistor for 47 ohm or they can give even a large board as a resistor of 47 ohm.. For my exam i got a small wires as resistors of 1 kilo ohm , 3kilo ohm etc.. Mostly they will give short wires

kaipai:
THanksssssssssssss a lotttttttttttt.
Thank you Guitarbuddy!YOu re very nice person.

Plz tell me how much help do the supervizor in the practical exam provide?I know they help but they deduct marks for that but i want to know how much helpful they were in your case, or your friends's case?
How long did you take to preapre for all the subjects AS level? And how long in particular did you practice the AS level physcis and chemy practicals, i am afraid that they are boring and difficult????
Did your tutor taught you from past practical papers or something else??

I hope you understand all my questions (whic may seem rather odd!)Pls try to reply all questions, you may ask your friiend/teaher if you can. ONe more question: Which variant of Practical AS physcis/chemistry you chose/ your teacher chose? I have heard that the student gets the chance to decide whic variant they want of practical paper.
Tahnks buddy,
Take care

Best wishes,

Kai pai.

Actually, even i am weak in practicals. In the physics practical i couldnt connect the circuit so the teacher help me by telling where to connect the wires. I dont know about the marks they detect but i think they will detect 2 marks in case of major help. The tutor taught us from the past papers. And the paper is of 2 hrs. We practiced around 10 papers. It depends on the person how is their ability to prepare for all the subjects at AS level. I am very good in maths so it took less time. Overall i took around 1.5 weeks to learn all the chapters and other i just solved all the past papers. About the variant i didnt get to choose the variant , the school only chose it and gave so i dont no.

Ask anything you want .

Take Care

guitarbuddy:
I would also like to ask one more thing... What is a good pass grade in a levels ? I am looking at NUS university. They say  A good pass in at least 3 ‘Advanced’ Level subjects is required for candidates to submit an application. Many applicants submit good passes for  4 or more ‘Advanced’ Level subjects for our consideration.
So basically what is considered a good grade for most good to best universities ?
