In British Secondary school (Year 9- 13), there is a test called Certificate of Education: GCE. Students must pass this test in order to access to university system. GCE has 2 levels which are GCE O Level (year 10-11) and GCE A Level (year 12-13).
Later, GCE O Level has been changed to GCSE but for educational system outside the UK, the test will be called IGCSE (also in Thailand). However, there are many countries where GCE O Level is still applied. Such as Singapore Malaysia Pakistan Hongkong and Brunei. In fact, GCSE and O Level are similar and in the same level.

There is no GCE O Level in Thailand but there is a similar test called IGCSE which has been developed from GCE O Level. The test will be applied in international schools and Home school. However, the test system has been changed since 2016. Before students who pass IGCSE will receive high school certificate and can use the certificate for their further study but now students will need to take A-Level test after IGCSE in order to be able to receive high school certificate.
However, there are many countries where GCE O Level is applicable. One of them is Singapore and the test is called” The Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education Ordinary level”. Students will have to take this test in high school and if they want to continue their study in university, they will have to study in Junior college or Pre University for 2 years to be able to take A Level (Singapore-Cambridge General of Education Advanced Level).
