Question 1

What are Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education grade thresholds (syllabus 0413)?

Accepted Answer

Grade thresholds are the minimum weighted marks you need for each grade in Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education (syllabus 0413). Cambridge sets the thresholds once marking is complete for the whole cohort, based on how the papers scored and how past cohorts performed.

Syllabus 0413 reports on the letter-grade scale (A*-G). Cambridge also offers a parallel 9-1 variant (syllabus 0995) that reports on the reformed 9-1 scale.

Question 2

Why are there several options (AX, AY, BX, and so on)?

Accepted Answer

Cambridge lets candidates sit different combinations of components (called 'options') for IGCSE Physical Education. Component 02 is the coursework (practical), Components 11-13 are Paper 1 variants (theory), Component 82 is Paper 2 (theory, external assessment) and Component 92 is another Paper 2 variant. Component 50 is a standalone coursework-only option used for private candidates.

Your school decides which option to enter you for. Check your statement of entry, or ask your teacher which combination you sat.

Question 3

Which series does this page cover?

Accepted Answer

This page pulls together Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education (0413) thresholds from June 2022 through June 2025, plus the November worldwide series for 2022, 2023 and 2024. Cambridge does not run the 0413 syllabus in the March (India) series.

Question 4

What does 'weighted' mean on the maximum mark?

Accepted Answer

Cambridge scales individual component marks before adding them up, so the total after weighting sits at the value in the 'max' column, not the raw sum of component maxes. When you're scoring past papers, add up your raw marks, apply Cambridge's published scaling, then compare the weighted total against the threshold on this page.

Question 5

When are the Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education thresholds published?

Accepted Answer

Cambridge International publishes grade threshold tables per syllabus within a few days of IGCSE results being issued each August. They land on Cambridge's grade threshold tables page as one PDF per syllabus.

Question 6

How should I use these thresholds when I'm revising?

Accepted Answer

Sit past papers timed, mark them against the official Cambridge mark scheme, and compare your weighted total to the threshold for your option. A [Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education course](https://cognito.org/courses/gcse/physical-education/cie) can help you work through the syllabus systematically. Score against the [past-papers library](https://cognito.org/past-papers) as you go.

Question 7

Can I use Cognito for Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education practice?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our [Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education course](https://cognito.org/courses/gcse/physical-education/cie) covers the syllabus with notes, quizzes and past papers. Use the [past-papers library](https://cognito.org/past-papers) to time yourself against real Cambridge papers, then check your weighted total against the thresholds on this page.
