IGCSE RESULTS 2005<br />
This year 45 students from ISS too k one or more IGCSE examinations. IGCSE are<br />
graded from A* to G (with A* - C normally accepted as ‘pass’ grades by British<br />
universities). A U grade (unclassified) is given if for some reason students do not<br />
produce sufficient work <strong>of</strong> an adequate standard to be awarded a grade on a particular<br />
examination.<br />
<strong>The</strong> overall grades for <strong>the</strong> last five years are indicated in <strong>the</strong> chart below:-<br />
