IGCSE - students getting enrolled into Colleges in India- Possible or not ?

Hi VaniSam

There isabsolutely  no problem with getting into admissions for higher education in India after completing the IGCSEs. The accepted grades are C and above.

My elder son joined in Engineering first yr after the IGCSEs and A levels.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Shailaja,

Can you share where your elder son has completed his IGCSE and A level exams?  In which college he is studying now and which subject he has taken in Engineering?. Thank you.

Hi Sreemadhy

My elder one has completed his GCE O'levels and IGCSE from Maldives and younger one did it at one of the International schools in Bagalore and for A levels decided to homeschool as there is no school offering A levels in Hyderabad. He sits the exam through a school in Bangalore as external candidate.

Elder one is now in first year of Computer Science Engineering, having cleared EAMCET last yr. But he is leaving to UK to pursue undergraduate course in Cyber forensics in September.

Younger would be finishing his A levels in Oct/Nov 2011 and later he would prepare for SATs and try for Singapore.

Any more details, pl. drop a mail to my inbox and I will reply.

Hi Shailajakarnam,

I am planning to put my kids in IGCSE board. but confused by so many reviews that read that it is tough or almost not possible to enter professional courses like MBBS or BE in india. How far this is true? Pls. throw some light on this.

btw, am a resident indian and hence cant avail NRI/Foreigner quota.

 Hi Shailaja,

hi Shailaja,

Can You please let me know if OCI students has to go through NRI quota with different fee structure?? If student takes entrance tests after IGCSE, are they allowed to go through Grovernment quota? We have OCI status and planning to return to India next month.  Please advice.
