4 Instructions for the Submission of Entries 1. Introduction The Cambridge Guide to Making Entries contains instructions for the submission of all General Qualification examinations for the November 2017 examination series. This document should be read in conjunction with the November 2017 exam timetable, to ensure that any timetable clashes are detected as early as possible. The qualifications that are covered by this document are: Cambridge International Ordinary Level (O Level) Cambridge International Advanced Level (A Level) 2. Syllabus Information Syllabus information, including syllabus numbers, entry option s and prohibited combinations, is contained in the syllabus lists provided with these instructions. Candidates are not permitted to enter for the same syllabus at two centres in the same examination series. 3. Methods of Entry Centres should submit entries using the entry form INT./E.1 supplied with these instructions. Centres are reminded of the importance of submitting accurate entry data. The materials supplied to Centres after the receipt of entries, including such items as question papers, coursework/internallyassessed mark sheets and attendance registers, are dependent upon those entries, as is the subsequent processing of candidates marks, grades and certificates. 4. Final Date for the Receipt of Entries Examination Series/ Qualification November Cambridge International O Level and Cambridge International A Level 30 July Centres should submit their entries as soon as possible. Entries received after the above specified date will be subject to late entry fees. 5. Private Candidates University of Cambridge International Examinations are designed primarily for candidates who follow courses of study at schools and colleges that act as registered Centres. It is recognised, however, that there are candidates who may not attend schools or colleges but who may wish to enter for the examinations. Such individuals are referred to as private candidates, and their status is indicated by entering the letter P in the appropriate column on the entry form. Individuals who have been entered as private candidates are identified separately in summaries of the Centre s results. Statement of Results and Certificates will be sent to the Centre. 6. Candidate Numbering Centres must allocate a candidate number to each candidate. For each candidate a unique number within the range 1 to 9999 must be used. Candidate numbers need not be consecutive but must be listed in ascending numerical order. All subsequent lists of candidates provided by Cambridge will be in candidate number order. 2

Do not mix new and retake candidates on the same form. 5 CANDIDATE NUMBER Enter for each candidate the number that you have allocated. 6 CANDIDATE NAME Enter each candidate s name.

A colon need not be used in the case of candidates where the family name appears as the first word(s) of the name, such as in TANG PO HENG. If the colon is omitted, the candidate s name will appear on all documents, including results and certificates, in the same form as originally submitted. 7 SEX M/F Enter M for a male candidate, F for a female candidate. 8 DATE OF BIRTH DAY MONTH YEAR Enter the date of birth of each candidate numerically, e.g. for 25 August 1994, enter: CANDIDATE STATUS For a school candidate: For a private candidate: Leave Blank Enter P 3

Examples of entries for two syllabuses are given below: Example 1 O LEVEL COMPUTER STUDIES 7010 BY for a candidate entering for components 12 and 82 Example 2 A LEVEL BIOLOGY 9700 AY for a candidate entering for components 12, 22, 33, 42 and ANALYSIS OF ENTRY This box is for the Centre s own use and may be of assistance in calculating the fee payable. 13 CANDIDATE S INITIALS This box is for the Centre s own use. 14 NUMBER OF CANDIDATES ON THIS SHEET The total number of candidates listed on the sheet should be entered in the upper box at the foot of the Candidate Name column. 15 TOTAL NUMBER OF CANDIDATES Enter, on the last form only, the total number of candidates on all the forms used. 16 DECLARATION AND 17 DATE The Head of Centre must sign and date the declaration on each of the entry forms. 18 TOTALS This box is for the Centre s own use. 19 SHEET NUMBER Each sheet must be numbered in the boxes e.g. for three sheets; Sheet 1: 1 of 3 Sheet 2: 2 of 3 Sheet 3: 3 of 3 4

7 8. Despatch of Entry Forms When the Entry Forms have been completed, the top two copies should be prepared for despatch. These should be submitted to the Mauritius Examinations Syndicate. The third copy should be retained by the Centre. 9. Entry Amendments Amendments for all entries must be submitted on the Candidate Entry Amendment Form (see page 14). This form is to be photocopied as required. 10. Entry Exclusions Candidates may not offer in any one examination: Subjects with identical titles, at the same qualification level, More than one of the alternatives in any subject, except where specified in the Syllabuses. Any combination of subjects or papers forbidden by the subject Syllabuses. Oral and practical assessment will be carried out in appropriate subjects. In addition, Centres may offer Coursework (school-based assessment) in most subjects provided that Cambridge is satisfied that suitable and reliable moderation can be achieved. Teachers must be trained by Cambridge in the appropriate subjects before Centres may undertake this internal assessment. 11. Cambridge International AS & A Level Compensatory AS Level Some candidates who have entered for an A Level in a subject will be awarded an AS result rather than an A Level result. This is because their performance, while not meeting the standards of the A Level examination, successfully meets those required for the AS Level. Candidates who have failed to reach the required standard in the A Level examination but who would have passed at AS Level examination will receive a Statement of Result which shows the AS performance, graded a(a)-e(e), providing a clear indication of their achievement. Please note that Compensatory AS results are not available for all subjects as there are a few that are not available at AS Level. Not all examination boards adopt this practice; this service to candidates is part of Cambridge s commitment to ensuring accurate and reliable results, which fully recognise the nature of a candidate s achievement. 5

8 Entering for an Examination A notice to candidates Before your school submits its entries to Cambridge, you will be asked to check your entry and confirm that it is correct. You must pay particular attention to the following points: A Are your first forename and family name correctly spelt, and are the initials of your other forenames correctly shown? This is most important, because certificates show the names given on the entry form. Centre and candidate details including the spelling of name and date of birth must be checked when Statements of Entry (and Statements of Result) are issued. Any inaccuracies must be reported to Cambridge immediately upon discovery and prior to the issue of certificates. A fee will be charged for issuing a replacement certificate due to incorrect candidate and/or Centre details. This service is available only within 18 months of the date of issue of the original certificate. B Are your date of birth and your sex correctly shown? C Have you been entered for all the syllabuses you are taking and for the correct components within each syllabus? You should pay particular attention to your entry for syllabuses where there are alternative syllabuses. D Is the total number of syllabuses you are taking shown correctly? You must realise that in checking and signing for your entry you are taking responsibility for its accuracy. You will not be permitted to make changes later. A copy of this notice should be displayed where candidates can read it, or it should otherwise be brought to their attention before they check their entries. 6
