I think the GCSEs are quite hard. They are especially bad for your mental health. You are constantly reminded by teachers to revise revise revise and to work harder and that this determines your life. Not only this, you have to learn different things from different subjects at the same time.

There are several reasons that the SAT is considered a more valuable admissions tool than your GPA. The most obvious is that the SAT is a standardized test. While your GPA compares you to the rest of your school, your SAT score compares you to the rest of the country. GPAs are not standard.

Overall, IB is better than iGCSE as it is a more advanced level of qualification and it shows an ability of being able to study and understand more complex things than the relatively basic concepts of iGCSE.

If you are asking: “Was it harder to get an A on O-Levels compared to GCSEs?” the answer is: Yes, it was harder to get a high grade on O-Levels rather than GCSEs. This is because grades for O-Levels were norm-referenced meaning only a set number of students could ever achieve the highest grade.

So yes, in essence, A-Level Maths is more difficult than GCSE Maths. It's a step up in independency as you're expected to learn content on your own. It's also just generally harder content! The syllabus builds on and challenges GCSE Maths, and so you'll find that it ramps up in difficulty as you progress.
