IGCSE Exam Timetable and Session Dates

How to Use the Timetable
- Plan revision so heavier subjects get more time before their exam dates.
- Avoid clashes: Centres manage timetables so you don’t have two exams at the same time.
- Results: Use the approximate results dates to plan retakes, cash-in, or next steps (e.g. A-Level, university).
