    1. Yes, they are! These notes are tailored to match the CIE IGCSE notes, however, the two syllabi are very similar, so they can be used for Edexcel too.

    1. These notes cover the syllabus completely, and is suited for revision. But please do ensure you have read through the prescribed textbooks (that are Cambridge-approved) before you use these notes.

    1. Much of the content is the same, so yes. However they are not tailored to exactly fit the new syllabus. I am currently working notes that do fit the new one, though 🙂
