Cumulative world totals grades 9-1
These figures may differ from those of previous November series. This is because there have been some substantial changes in the profile of candidates entered. Also, the awarding standard was adjusted from November 2020 to November 2022 in response to the Covid pandemic. The awarding standard returned to the pre-Covid
standard in November 2023.
We offer two different grade sets to report candidates’ performance in a number of Cambridge IGCSE syllabuses for schools in administrative zone 3, and in UAE and Oman.
The 9-1 syllabuses and corresponding examinations included in this document are identical to their equivalent A*-G graded syllabuses. | | | | | | | | | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | % | achieving | % achieving | % achieving | % achieving | % achieving | % achieving | % achieving | % achieving | % achieving | % candidates | | | | 9 | 8 or above | 7 or above | 6 or above | 5 or above | 4 or above | 3 or above | 2 or above | 1 or above | ungraded | | Accounting | | 24.4 | 42.7 | 51.1 | 63.6 | 75.1 | 84.4 | 91.6 | 96.4 | 99.1 | 0.9 | | Biology | 16.5 | | 32.4 | 44.0 | 56.8 | 67.9 | 76.1 | 86.7 | 93.9 | 98.6 | 1.4 | | Business Studies | 2.5 | | 9.6 | 21.9 | 35.6 | 51.8 | 65.4 | 80.3 | 88.2 | 95.1 | 4.9 | | Chemistry | 24.6 | | 38.3 | 48.2 | 58.9 | 68.9 | 79.5 | 88.0 | 95.5 | 98.7 | 1.3 | | Computer Science | 25.1 | | 42.1 | 57.0 | 69.6 | 79.5 | 88.5 | 94.5 | 98.0 | 99.3 | 0.7 | | Economics | 1.5 | | 10.6 | 30.8 | 48.7 | 63.1 | 76.4 | 89.0 | 93.9 | 99.2 | 0.8 | | English as a Second Language | 22.1 | | 33.8 | 41.7 | 57.1 | 66.0 | 73.4 | 87.5 | 94.7 | 98.1 | 1.9 | | English First Language | 5.4 | | 14.3 | 27.8 | 47.9 | 66.9 | 83.5 | 95.6 | 98.8 | 99.9 | 0.1 | | First Language Arabic | 16.4 | | 29.5 | 47.0 | 63.9 | 73.2 | 78.1 | 89.6 | 96.2 | 98.4 | 1.6 | | French | 32.8 | | 43.3 | 53.0 | 67.2 | 80.6 | 91.8 | 97.8 | 99.3 | 100.0 | 0.0 | | ICT | 21.2 | | 42.8 | 62.5 | 75.8 | 84.5 | 90.7 | 94.6 | 97.8 | 99.2 | 0.8 | | Mathematics | 4.4 | | 20.6 | 34.9 | 45.1 | 57.0 | 71.7 | 84.9 | 85.9 | 86.1 | 13.9 | | Physics | 21.5 | | 34.9 | 51.6 | 61.8 | 72.4 | 80.8 | 87.8 | 94.7 | 98.3 | 1.7 | This document was initially designed for print and as such does not reach accessibility standard WCAG 2.1 in a number of ways including missing text alternatives and missing document structure.
