IGCSE Coordinated Science Tutoring & Prep Course
Short answer
The IGCSE Coordinated Science course is one-to-one tutoring, taught live online: every lesson is 90 minutes.
A private group is for 3 or more friends who sign up together (the group programme is 30 hours per subject); there are no published start dates, and we agree the start date and lesson times with you.
In one-to-one tutoring, packages are from €85 a lesson.
IGCSE Coordinated Science tutoring for Cambridge 0654, the double award: biology, chemistry and physics in equal depth, plus the practical papers.
One-to-one and small groups · Live online · Cambridge International syllabuses

About the subject
IGCSE Coordinated Science: what it covers and who it suits
IGCSE Coordinated Science tutoring at TestPrep Europe covers the double-award qualification (Cambridge 0654). Structure may vary by syllabus code. We teach biology, chemistry and physics in roughly equal depth, with two separate grades on the certificate, and prepare students for the practical / alternative-to-practical component.
- Cambridge 0654 specification mapped explicitly across all three sciences
- Double-award scope: closer to triple science than to Combined Science
- Practical / alternative-to-practical technique drilled separately
Exam
IGCSE Coordinated Science exam format
Multiple-choice paper
Recall and recognition spanning Biology, Chemistry and Physics strands.
Theory paper
Structured questions across all three strands; double-award candidates receive two grades.
Practical / Alternative to Practical
Variables, controls, anomalous results and conclusion writing. — Cambridge International Co-ordinated Sciences (0654) is a double-award route, like Pearson Edexcel's International GCSE Science (Double Award); the two syllabuses differ in content and papers. We confirm the exact syllabus code before planning.

Included in lessons
Practice built into your IGCSE Coordinated Science lessons
Every topic you cover in IGCSE Coordinated Science is reinforced with question sets your tutor puts together for you. This programme has no separately sold question bank or practice test.
Mock exams included in the programme- Targeted questions on every topic
- Practice sets built around your weak areas
- Exam-style practice with past papers and mark schemes
- Worked solutions and feedback on every question
Syllabus
IGCSE Coordinated Science topics
1Biology strand
- Cells, transport, plant and human physiology, genetics, ecology — condensed compared to single-subject Biology.
2Chemistry strand
- Particles, atoms, bonding, stoichiometry, reactions, organic chemistry — condensed compared to single-subject Chemistry.
3Physics strand
- Forces, energy, waves, electricity, magnetism, atomic physics — condensed compared to single-subject Physics.
4Cross-cutting practical skills
- Variables, error sources, graph drawing, conclusion writing applied across all three strands.
- Coordinated candidates lose marks when they over-rely on single-subject depth where the syllabus only requires breadth.
Topic groups as we teach them; your exam board's syllabus may name and order them differently.

How lessons work
Triple-science discipline at double-award scope
We teach Coordinated Science with the same conventions we'd use for triple science, just calibrated to the rubric depth.
Three conventions, one student
Biology, chemistry and physics each have their own answer conventions. We drill them as separate sub-skills.
Practical paper as a paper of its own
Practical / alternative-to-practical is treated as a distinct skill, not a content-review afterthought.
Advice
IGCSE Coordinated Science: common mistakes and study tips
MistakeTreating Coordinated Science as a watered-down version of triple science.
FixCoordinated Science covers most of the depth of triple. Underestimating it leads to gaps in chemistry equations and physics maths.
MistakeCalculations without working.
FixAlways show formula, substitution and units.
MistakePractical paper neglected.
FixPractical / alternative-to-practical marks make a real difference at the grade boundary.
MistakeEquations not balanced or missing state symbols.
FixMark schemes test both. Missing either is a predictable loss.
MistakeDiagrams hastily drawn.
FixCells, circuits, apparatus — all must be neatly labelled.
