IGCSE A* vs. O-level A
DrEvil:
hehe...in the Middle East, forget abt that... :-* :-*

Hey Alpha, I got the full percentage marks for my O level exam just after a few days after getting the provisional result. Just day before yesterday I got % marks for my AS exam too. Not sure why didnt you get it ???
$tyli$h Executive:
Yes yes yes finally confirmed from someone. Its the edexcel who has dropped O levels and decided to conduct only IGCSE. CIE DID NOT DO IT. In our school many students registered for the may june O level exam.
And Alpha yes CIE HAS NOT adopted an A* grade for GCE O levet. Only in cambridge IGCSE there is A* grade.
Congratulations Alpha. Thats an outstanding result! Hope you do good in AS too!
Hehe! I also got for 9 subjects % marks > 90%. And got A(a) grade. Dont know if I got distinction 1. Those who got 85 or 86 also got the same grade.
And for those who are talking about A*: i got 95% in additional maths in november 2008 which was top in the world for that subject. Still I failed to get an A*. This grade has NOT been adopted by CIE.
$tyli$h Executive:
Another confirmation: NO distinction 1 or 2 for us. If somebody gets A(a), thats it. No further hassle. He or she got the toppest grade. Dont know the system adopted by mauritius though. ??? We are in zone 4. Mauritius is probably on zone 3.
Saladin:
An Astar at IGCSE is equivalent to a distinction at O level.
