IGCSE Mathematics is Cambridge's core mathematics exam covering numbers, algebra, geometry, statistics and probability. It is offered at two levels: Core and Extended. The Extended level is required for students targeting grade A or A* and includes more challenging topics. Core level awards grades C-G while Extended awards grades A*-E.
Achieving A* in IGCSE Mathematics requires regular problem-solving practice, timing skills and familiarity with question formats. TestPrep tutors systematically cover every topic in the Cambridge syllabus and reinforce with past paper integration. Our tutors specialized in Paper 2 (Extended) and Paper 4 (Extended) questions solve advanced A*-level problems in detail. Functions, trigonometry and probability are particularly critical areas of the Extended syllabus.
Core caps at C; Extended targets A*. Universities expect Extended. CIE 0580 syllabus.
Typically ~85% raw on Extended. Year 11 mocks at 75%+ consistently signal A* trajectory.
Extended: Paper 2 (short answer, no calculator, 1h 30min) + Paper 4 (structured, calculator, 2h 30min). 200 marks total.
Yes — Extended IGCSE is the natural foundation. End-of-Year-11 Pure 1 prep makes the A-Level transition smoother.
70 marks, short response
130 marks, structured
