Hello, I’m a private candidate who will be taking the Mathematics, Biology and and Chemistry A levels this June. I would like to clarify if graphing calculator TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition can be used in examinations under these subjects? Thanks!

  Hi Mindy!
  
  Please read this article to understand better on what is allowed and what is not: https://www.igcsecentre.com/what-kind-of-calculator-is-acceptable-for-use-in-cambridge-igcse-mathematics-examinations/
  
  For the final confirmation, get confirmation from your Examination Officer from your school or exam centre for permitted model. They are the ones who have the final say on what is permitted.

Is it possible to finish AS & A level Mathematics in my AS year and take A-level Further Mathematics in my A-level year?

  Hi Ali,
  
  AS level is the first part of an A level course. A2 exams and coursework are added on to an AS level, bringing it up to A level standard. AS level results can be used to count towards your final A level result if you are proceeding to A Level.
  
  As such you cannot take AS & A level Mathematics in the same examination series. You need to complete the AS level and A2 exams first before you take its A level counterpart. Consequently, you have to take AS level Further Mathematics before you can take A level Further Mathematics.
  
  Alternatively, you can start studying Further Mathematics during your AS Level year, while you sit for the Mathematics exam, then sit for the Further Mathematics exam in the following year.

Are there any entry requirements to the A-level? Shall we pass the IGCSE before it?
Thank you for valuable information
