Triple Award Science, commonly referred to as Triple Science, results in three separate GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry and Physics and provide the broadest coverage of the main three science subjects. The qualifications are offered by the five main awarding bodies in England; AQA , Edexcel , OCR , CIE and Eduqas .
Due to the high costs associated with O Level Schooling, it is mostly opted by privileged citizens. Passing criteria of O levels is to have passes in 8 subjects including Maths, English, Pakistan Studies, Islamiat, Urdu and any three optional subjects. [7] Students can also study more than these 3 subjects.
When introduced the GCSEs were graded from A to G, with a C being set as roughly equivalent to an O-Level Grade C or a CSE Grade 1 and thus achievable by roughly the top 25% of each cohort. The Royal Alexandra & Albert School in Reigate, Surrey, trialled GCSE English in 1980. Those who passed would receive both a CSE and an O-Level certificate.

Lawson-Perfect discloses that this system cannot identify "why" a student made an error, but maintains that it is generally successful in providing fair ECF credit. The college board has been known to employ ECF in both the AP Calculus AB and AP Physics B exams. [2]
By selecting the witness as a random string, the verifier is a probabilistic polynomial-time Turing Machine whose probability of accepting x when x is in X is large (greater than 1/2, say), but zero if x ∉ X (for RP); of rejecting x when x is not in X is large but zero if x ∈ X (for co-RP); and of correctly accepting or rejecting x as a ...
