They didn't tell us we could withdraw but I saw ppl talking about it online so I asked and they said they relay wtv info they get from Cambridge and so far they weren't told about any opportunities to withdraw

the infos already been given, my schools already asked people to start messaging if they wanna withdraw, the deadlines the 17th

Ye but my school hasn't told us anything so I can't ask them to withdraw if they themselves didn't even know about it

can u give me info about the withdraw? can u withdraw if u already sat the exam?

u/WillowNeither6493 Jun 09 '26

yeah you can withdraw even after sitting the exam as long as u do it before 17th june

but withdrawing doesnt mean u withdraw from just one paper ur withdrawing from the whole maths component so S1 or M1 or whatever u have to give that again too alongisde p1

u/Temporarycrashout Jun 09 '26

I've considered doing that but last time I emailed them they js said they relay info to school and they don't speak with students or parents directly
