    All about General Certificate of Education (GCE) Examinations


    What is GCE?
    The General Certificate of Education (GCE) is an internationally recognised secondary-level academic qualification. GCE examinations are set by Cambridge International Examinations, an examination board under Cambridge Assessment. GCE qualifications are offered at the Advanced Subsidiary (AS) Level or the Advanced (A) Level. Students can opt to take preparatory courses that guide them through the specific syllabi of the subjects they have chosen as part of their course of study.


    What are AS- and A-Level GCE?
    Cambridge International AS- and A- Level qualifications are taken by over 175,000 learners in more than 125 countries. They are typically for learners between the ages of 16 and 19 years, who need advanced instruction to prepare them for higher education. The average A-Level syllabus can be divided into two parts. The AS syllabus content must ideally be covered in the first year of study while the second part of the syllabus, commonly referred to as A2, is tackled towards the end of the second year of study. However, there are certain subjects that can only be taken in the AS-Level while others can be taken as free-standing qualifications.

    Why should I opt for AS- and A-Level?
    Good A-Level results can open doors for students. Some of the world’s best institutions for higher education—Cambridge, Harvard, MIT and London School of Economics to name just a few—value for students with excellent A-Level records when it comes to granting admissions to their reputed undergraduate programmes. Thousands of learners opt for Cambridge International AS- and A-Level degrees every year in hopes of gaining placements in leading world universities—in the UK , the US, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, among others.

    All UK Universities and over 450 US Universities accept Cambridge International A-Level Qualifications. Learners can find out which universities accept Cambridge qualifications by searching online at www.cie.org.uk/recognition. Employers worldwide also recognise Cambridge International AS- and A- Level results as reliable records of academic achievement. Good A-Level results can give students access to a range of professional and vocational courses that can help build their skills for an exciting career. A-Level qualifications are also accepted by many national and private universities in Nepal.

    Benefits for Learners
    The wide variety of subjects available for study at Cambridge International AS- and A-Levels—55 in total—means learners can choose a study route that suits their interests and aspirations. This develops deep understanding of the subject as well as independent learning and constructive thinking skills as well as other abilities that universities value highly. This programme is flexible and provides learners the freedom to explore the various subjects they might be interested in.

    When can I opt for an A-Level degree?
    Students who have completed secondary education can take opt for an A-Level degree.  Three subjects at A-level and one General Paper at AS-level is equivalent to the Intermediate level in Nepal.

    When do the exams take place?
    The GCE examinations are held twice a year. One is held in May/June and the other in October/November.

    When do registrations take place?
    Registrations for the May/June exams take place in January/February, while those for the October/November examinations take place in July/August.

    How does the evaluation system of A-Level education work?
    A-Level evaluations are based on written examinations that use a variety of question types. These include essays and multiple choice questions. In some subjects, oral or practical examinations are mandatory. Practical examinations are a must for physics and chemistry students.

    Percentage uniform marks
    Percentage uniform marks correspond to the grades available (A*, A, B, C and so on) and give students additional information about their academic performance. The Percentage uniform mark range for each grade is as follows:

    Grade    % uniform mark range
    A*    90-100
    A    80-89+
    B    70-79
    C    60-60
    D    50-59
    E    40-49
    l    The percentage uniform mark shows students whether they are in the middle of a grade, or near either the top or the bottom of it.
    l    It does not affect the grade they receive, but gives them additional information about the same.
    l    It will appear on their certificates.   

    When do I get my results?
    The results are sent in six-seven weeks after the exams in the form of Statement of Results. Certificates for candidates who have successfully passed the exams are normally sent out six weeks after the issue of results.

    Where, in Nepal, can I enrol to study courses that will lead to a GCE degree?
    The British Council website (www.britishcouncil.org/nepal) lists all recognised GCE schools in the country, including their contact information. It will be best to prepare for the exams after attending classes at one of these registered institutions. Each college typically has its own rules regarding the number and types of subjects offered, as well as the duration of the A-Level course. Currently, there are 41 institutions in Nepal which provide A-Level education to students. Out of these, 37 are affiliated with the British Council.

    GCE A-level: Quality education with int’l recognition, A Level in Nepal

    School Leaving Certificate graduates had no option other than joining the Proficiency Certificate Level course under Tribhuvan University (TU) until few decades ago. However, with the increasing demand for qualitative higher secondary education system, various international courses like University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) affiliated General Certificate in Education Advanced Levels (GCE A-levels) and International Baccalaureate were introduced in the country.

    Such pre-university diploma courses have now provided opportunities for many Nepali students to pursue global standard education in their own homeland. The A-level programme, which was introduced some three decades ago, is not entirely a new concept to many. Offered initially by Budhanilkantha School from 1988, the programme was not accessible to the general public until various private schools started it a decade later.

    A record at the British Council shows 41 academic institutions are authorised to run A-level programmes while 38 of them have already started their classes. The programme, though centralised in the Capital in the beginning, is available at various schools outside the Kathmandu valley. Currently, three schools in Pokhara and one each in Biratnagar, Butwal and Chitwan are operating A-level programmes.

    According to Nabin Man Shrestha, chairman of Cambridge Educators’ Association Nepal (CEAN), a total of 3,200 students are studying under the A-level programme.  He said the A-level is a rigorous academic programmes available in the country.

    The A-level is an academic qualification offered by Cambridge University and is equivalent to the Plus-Two courses under the Higher Secondary Education Board. The GCE is run under Cambridge International Examination (CIE) Board and part of the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES), now known as Cambridge Assessment. The A-level programme which is one of the most prestigious pre-university courses in the world is taught in around 170 countries across the globe. Students under the programme can choose from over 50 subjects. Moreover, the A Level curriculum has a flexibility to allow localisation of courses of many subjects mainly under non-science stream. According to A-level operators, the programme can be a very good option for students who want go abroad for higher studies. It not only provides a strong foundation for further education but also is recognised internationally.

    The evaluation system of the A-level programme is quite different from the one in practice under the Higher Secondary Education Board. Under the grade point average (GPA) system, the results are categorised as A, B, C, D or an E grades based on the performances of students. Tribhuvan University recognises A, B and C grades as distinction, first division and second division respectively; Grades D and E are recognised as third division. Similarly, the A-level programmes are run in semesters and examinations are held every six months. The examinations are held twice a year-in May/June and October/November.

    According to CEAN, the programme cost is different depending upon the colleges where monthly fees range from Rs 10,000 to Rs 25,000. On average, A-level programme in Nepal costs around half a million rupees to complete the two-year course.

    Tribhuvan University BBS and B.Ed 3rd year New routine

    Tribhuvan university (TU) publishes BBS 2nd year exam result 2069 BS

    Tribhuvan University,office of the controller of examination, Balkhu has published the results of Bachelor of Business Studies (BBS) 2nd year-2069 BS results.

    Relevance of four-year BBS course affiliated to Tribhuvan University (TU)

    Bachelor's in Business Studies (BBS) is an undergraduate programme that prepares students to become competent managers of any organisation in any sector. Tribhuvan University (TU), the oldest university in the country, has been offering this course in various colleges affiliated to it. From the year 2014 (2070 BS), TU has changed this three-year course to a four-year academic programme. As such colleges have already commenced this new course that has seen addition of different subjects that are claimed to meet the “need and demand of the changing market trend“.

    The changes
    The four-year BBS programme gives core and conceptual idea of business studies. Students pursuing the new BBS course can successfully handle any managerial level position, as per Naresh Shrestha,Principal of Prime College, Khusibun.

    This is because the course “is focused to develop required attitudes, abilities and practical skill in students, which constitute a foundation for their growth into competent business managers“. So, what does the new course comprise?

    Till date four new subjects have been included in the new course. Other than that the subjects are same as that of the three-year programme. Business Communication (IInd Year), Taxation and Auditing, Organisational Behaviour (IIIrd Year) and Report Writing, Entrepreneurship and Enterprise Development (IVth Year) are the new additions.

    Till date, “only the course of BBS Ist and IInd Year has been finalised“ as per Prakash Singh Pradhan, Campus Chief, Shanker Dev Campus, Putalisadak and colleges have started running the Ist Year classes.However, colleges are “still waiting for the courses of IIIrd and IVth Year to be confirmed from the Dean's office as those courses are in the process detailing“, informs Pradhan.

    Adapting to change
    Everything changes with time and we must adapt ourselves to the new trend set by the change. Thus, timely revision is required in any course. This is one reason due to which BBS was made a four-year course.

    Other Management courses like BBA are adapting themselves to the changing scenario that demands in-depth knowledge on research, skills or report writing, communication, et cetera.

    Nevertheless, not all students despite willing to equip themselves with aforementioned skills can enrol in BBA or others such courses as they are expensive in comparison to BBS, feels Pradhan.

    Thus, with the initiation of this four-year BBS that has been improvised as per the need of time, “students can get opportunities in this competitive market,“ says Pradhan. A BBA Ist Year student at Prime College, Priyanka Bajracharya, is excited as she has heard the four-year programme offers practical course as well.

    “I believe it has become one of the competent business courses we have in the country,“ she opines.

    Easier entry to foreign varsities
    Any student who wants to pursue his/her further education after the Bachelor's level in foreign countries need to complete 16 years of schooling as many universities have this requirement.And the students of BBS are no exception to it.Pradhan elaborates, “The global trend is such that a student willing to study in higher level after BBS must have schooling of 16 years.“

    Thus, the new change is expected to help students in the days ahead. “Students completing four-years BBS course from Nepal will find it easier to get admission in higher level. They won't need to face the hassle that would arise from having only 15 years of schooling on com pletion of their Bachelor's level,“ he further informs.

    Even students like Ramesh Bhandari and Samjhana Shrestha -BBS Ist Year students at Shanker Dev -are happy with the new course which they hope will ease students who want to pursue Master's level education in other nations.

    The other side
    Despite many students and teachers welcoming this change, some feel that much hard work and homework is necessary to make it a successful and beneficial.

    Sanjaya Poudel, BBS IIIrd Year student at Shanker Dev Campus, doubts the newly introduced four-year course.He feels the new course is just a propaganda that aims to send all Nepali students to other countries for further studies. “Not all students will go abroad for higher studies,“ he expresses adding, “If this course is also limited to theoretical knowledge without practical aspects like the earlier programme, then four-year BBS will be wasting students' one year.“

    Meanwhile, Bhandari feels the four-year BBS should be made semester-based rather than running it as a yearly programme. The process of holding exams once a year and letting the students wait for the results for a long time is tedious and frustrating.

    There is also need to break the traditional ways of teaching that lack interaction among teachers and students, as per Naresh. “There is need of a more interactive system where students can remain active through project works, presentations and case studies“.

    Nonetheless, the infrastructure of the college is another challenge as per Pradhan. “The existing infrastructure is insufficient for four-year programme. Likewise, we have arranged teachers based on the three-year course and it would create problems in the next session. But I hope the body authorised has plans to address these problems,“ states Pradhan.
