Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is IGCSE Co-ordinated Sciences, and how is it different from individual science subjects?
IGCSE Co-ordinated Sciences is a Double Award course that integrates Biology, Chemistry, and Physics into a single qualification, providing students with two IGCSE grades. It is more detailed than Combined Science but less intensive than taking three separate science subjects.
How does Mindlab help students excel in IGCSE Co-ordinated Sciences?
Our expert tutors simplify complex concepts, provide structured lessons, and focus on exam techniques to ensure students develop strong scientific reasoning and analytical skills across all three disciplines.
Is IGCSE Co-ordinated Sciences suitable for students who want to study science at A-Level or IB?
Yes! The course provides a solid foundation in all three sciences, making it an excellent choice for students planning to take Biology, Chemistry, or Physics at a higher level. However, students aiming for highly specialized science degrees may prefer to take three separate IGCSE sciences.
What kind of exam preparation does Mindlab provide?
We offer past paper practice, structured revision sessions, and time management strategies, helping students refine their exam technique and approach questions with confidence.
What are the most challenging topics in IGCSE Co-ordinated Sciences?
Many students find mole calculations in Chemistry, forces and motion in Physics, and genetics in Biology particularly challenging. Our tutors break down these topics into easy-to-understand concepts, ensuring clarity and mastery.
How should students divide their study time among Biology, Chemistry, and Physics?
Since Co-ordinated Sciences covers three subjects within one course, we recommend a balanced study approach. Our tutors help students create personalized study plans based on their strengths and weaknesses in each subject. In the end, we go analyze what personalised help you need the most and tailor your classes to help you achieve success in this subject.

Success Stories from Mindlab’s IGCSE Co-ordinated Sciences Tuition
My grades have improved greatly
He is a great science teacher who is very knowledgable about the Science syllabus and has helped me a lot to understand the whole syllabus in such a short time before my IGCSE exams. With his help, my grades have improved greatly and I think that I would have been able to do better if I had known how to study right in the first place. He was able to explain the concepts and principles clearly so that I could understand them.

Please thank all three teachers on behalf of us
In IGCSE exams S. got A in maths, A in science and in English he got 75 and 77 in two papers which is just few marks short of A.
Please thank all three teachers (Ms. Michelle, Ms. Jenn, and Ms. Nithiya) on behalf of us!

Within a very short time, I was able to produce substance and depth in my essays.
I enjoyed my English tuition with Mr Sean. My grades in school fall in the range of 5s & 6s and I got a C during my mocks exams. I had no idea how I could be better. Mr Sean taught me to look for relevant points and to organise my ideas in a structured manner to score points. Under his guidance, I developed a deeper and more critical analysis of the different texts. Not only is Mr Sean effective in his teaching methods, he is also extremely patient. Within a very short time, I was able to produce substance and depth in my essays. I am very happy to score an “A” for Literature and “B” in English for the IGCSE exams in May/Jun 2022. Thank you very much!
Ms Xuan Ning is a great teacher! I was struggling with Chemistry and missing a lot of points for International Maths before starting tuition with her. She pushed me to practise Maths and explained well on the topics that I did not grasp very well. For Chemistry, she went through every topic in detail, helping me to understand the concepts in clarity. I develop more confidence in the practice papers when I start to do well. I was very happy to get a AA award for my Co-ordinated Science and a B for my Maths paper. Thank you Ms Xuan Ning!
Ms Jenn is a great teacher! My grades for Physics were inconsistent throughout school and I did poorly for my mocks. Ms Jenn was very clear in her explanations and she pushed me to cover all the topics, including the ones that I was not motivated to do. She makes Physics so much more interesting and enjoyable. I got a AA award for my Co-ordinated Science. Thank you so much, Ms Jenn!
