Are you taking your Singapore-Cambridge GCE N-Level this year? Then you must be familiar with the jittery feeling of “what’s next?” whenever you think about completing what might be the most important national examination of your academic life. Now that school has started, your parents and teachers must have briefed you on the necessary steps to take to prepare for the GCE N-Level, and how to ensure that you are able to score well enough to progress in the following year.
What you might not know is that here at PSB Academy, we offer Preparatory Course for Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) Examination (Intensive) for students in Singapore, that would prepare you for the Cambridge IGCSE Exams in a span of 5 months. Read on to find out more.
What is the Preparatory Course for Cambridge IGCSE Examination (Intensive)?
The Cambridge IGCSE prep course at PSB Academy is an intensive five-month part-time course that is specially designed for Singapore-Cambridge N-level graduates who wish to acquire practical skills, initiative, problem-solving skills and cultural awareness, while preparing them for the Cambridge IGCSE examinations. Students may then use the IGCSE qualifications as an entry requirement to progress to the Certificate level, and eventually a degree with PSB Academy.
Both the Cambridge IGCSE and Cambridge O-level [1] qualifications are equivalent qualifications grade for grade. Cambridge IGCSE covers and assesses more skills, and the assessment techniques are aimed at evaluating problem-solving skills, and practical abilities, while Cambridge O-level has some syllabuses which are developed to meet specific local needs and there are fewer coursework options offered.
Our preparatory course offers blended learning, where students will have the opportunity to attend classes on campus while also being supported by self-study materials which are accessible on the learning management system platform. The students are also exposed to formative assessments designed with the purpose to monitor the students’ performance in the course and familiarise them with the structure of the Cambridge examinations. At the end of the programme, the students will be equipped with the assessment skills pertaining to Cambrige IGCSE examinations, as well as transferrable real-life skills.
Why Choose PSB Academy’s Preparatory Course?
Students who enroll in our intensive preparatory course will focus on the curriculum over five months, preparing them to take the Cambridge IGCSE Exams as early as June.
