Cambridge IGCSE Computer Science (0478) is a different exam from CBSE or ICSE, with its own approach to computer systems, algorithms, programming and logic.
Many families at international schools in the Gulf and Singapore find that their child needs focused, syllabus-specific support.
Kwickprep teaches IGCSE CS 0478 in one-to-one classes, scheduled in your local time zone.
Always confirm that a tutor has taught your child's exact board before you begin.
Whatever your child's board, what matters most is a teacher who knows that exact syllabus well and teaches it patiently.
If this helped, share it with another parent in your circle.
The exam has two written papers of 75 marks each, 50% each: Paper 1 Computer Systems and Paper 2 Algorithms, Programming and Logic, both 1 hour 45 minutes.
