The Grading Rules
- The Cambridge IGCSE assigns grades to its students that range from “A – the highest” to “G – the lowest”
- If the performance of a student is not enough to even assign him or her a grade of "G", then such students are “ungraded”, which is reported on the statement of results
- The core students can achieve the highest grade of only “C” hence, the students who are willing to obtain grades "G" to "C" should opt for the core
- The Extended candidates can get grade “A” to “C”. The students who are willing to achieve the highest grades should opt for extended subject content

Think of English Language as a test of communication skills, while Literature is a deep dive into critical analysis. Language focuses on reading non-fiction texts and writing for different purposes (e.g., reports, speeches), emphasizing accuracy and audience; Literature requires you to analyze themes, characters, and writer’s techniques in set texts like novels and poems.
The choice hinges entirely on your target grade: Core caps at a C, while Extended opens the door to A* to E grades. Core covers foundational concepts and simpler comprehension questions, suitable for a secure pass; Extended includes supplementary, more challenging content requiring deeper analytical skills and complex writing tasks. Always consult your teacher, but opt for Extended if you are aiming for top grades for A-Level or university entrance.
Achieving the top grade in writing is less about length and more about precision, flair, and mastering the writer’s craft. You must meticulously plan your content and structure, use advanced vocabulary and grammar with accuracy, and tailor your tone and style perfectly to the required purpose and audience (e.g., persuasive article vs. descriptive narrative). Crucially, reserve 5-10 minutes to proofread for errors, as simple mistakes can drag your grade down.
Reading for IGCSE English is not merely about understanding what the text says, but about analyzing how the writer achieves their effect. Practice the “zoom-in” technique: identify a powerful word or phrase, quote it, and then explain its implicit meaning and effect on the reader, using precise literary devices terminology. Active reading and annotation of past paper non-fiction extracts are vital to developing this laser-focused analytical skill.
The most effective revision for English is consistent, deliberate practice rather than last-minute cramming of notes. Dedicate time to rotating between reading comprehension, directed writing, and composition practice, simulating real exam conditions with a strict timer. Use the official mark schemes as a study tool to understand exactly how examiners award marks and structure your answers accordingly.
A rich, diverse vocabulary is the currency of the top grades, but quality trumps quantity every time. Examiners look for words used with natural fluency and precision, ensuring they suit the specific context and tone of your writing. Do not just memorize complex words; instead, learn to use five new, appropriate words accurately in your daily writing and conversation to truly embed them.
