UAE Students: Is switching to O Levels after Grade 9 worth it?? Need real advice
Hey everyone,
I’m in Grade 9 (FBISE, science with bio) studying in the UAE, and honestly I’ve been really confused lately because there’s still no clear update about SSC exams here.
I’ve been thinking about switching to the IGCSE/O Level system and then doing A Levels, but I’m not sure if it’s the right move. I’d really appreciate some honest advice:
* Should I switch after getting promoted to Grade 10, or just finish Matric first and then switch?
* How hard is it to adjust from FBISE to O Levels?
* I chose biology, but now I’m thinking of switching to business subjects would that be a better option in O Levels?
* What’s the actual process of switching in the UAE? Is it complicated?
I’m kinda stressed and don’t wanna make the wrong decision, so if anyone has experience or guidance, please share 🙏
Thanks a lot!!
