About the Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics Exam

- Extended
- Paper 2 (non-calculator) and Paper 4 (calculator), each 2 hours and 100 marks; grades A* to E available
- Weighting
- Each paper is worth 50%, with structured and unstructured questions
- Exam series
- June and November
- Additional Mathematics (0606)
- Paper 1 (non-calculator) and Paper 2 (calculator), each 2 hours and 80 marks
- International Mathematics (0607)
- Three papers at Core or Extended, including an investigation paper, with a graphic display calculator for the calculator papers
Each paper includes a list of formulas, but not every formula is given, so some must be learnt.
Common Challenges IGCSE Maths Students Face
The Non-Calculator Paper
Half the marks at each tier come from a paper with no calculator, so arithmetic and algebra must be quick and reliable.
Core or Extended
The tier sets the grades available, C to G at Core and A* to E at Extended, so the choice matters.
Extended-Only Topics
Surds, functions and differentiation are Extended content only, on top of the Core topics.
Circle Theorems and 3D Trigonometry
Giving reasons for angles in circles, and at Extended, finding the angle between a line and a plane.
Vector Geometry
At Extended, using vectors to show that lines are parallel or that three points are collinear.
Statistics Diagrams
Cumulative frequency diagrams and histograms at Extended, then reading and comparing what they show.
