    Guys pls help..
    Im planning to do Bio.. in Local ALs..
    But Maths, Chem, Physics in London ALs

    What should I choose .. London or Local??

    Machan in London AL's there are two major and popular examination boards

    Edexcel Examinations

    Cambridge Examinations (From the University Cambridge International Examinations Dept)

    Edexcel is quite easy when you do the AS(Advaced Subsidiary Level)(the first part of AL's but turns out just as same as Cambridge at A2( Advanced level)

    Cambridge is a bit tough ,but more recognized.( a bit easier than the Local AL's but tougher than Edexcel but very recognized)

    Cambridge is less Expensive than Edexcel, and also Cambridge charges you per Subject not per paper, you can finish all the subjects with around Rs.55,000 to 60,000 range

    But Edexcel is a bit expensive, and also charges per paper, will cost you around Rs. 90,00 to Rs.100,000 not sure there charges now.

    Cambridge has Practical examinations conducted inside Labs,

    Where as Edexcel has Written practical papers.

    Any more information please do not hesitate to PM,glad to be of any help.

    Check with British Council for more information

    Good Luck!!!
