This guide helps you accurately complete the Edexcel IGCSE registration form for the May/June 2016 exam session with the British Council in Kuwait.

🗓️ Step 1: Mark Your Deadlines and Prepare Your Documents

First, know the critical dates and gather your paperwork. Registering by the regular deadline is essential to avoid high late fees.

May/June 2016 Registration Deadlines

Entry Stage	Registration Deadline (2016)
Regular Entries	13 January – 10 March 2016
First Level Late Entries	11 March – 16 March 2016
Second Level Late Entries	17 March – 21 March 2016

⚠️ Important: The form’s declaration states that “Fees are neither refundable nor carried forward to next examination session.” Submitting your application before the Regular Entry deadline is crucial.

Mandatory Documents Checklist

You must submit the following to the British Council Kuwait:

• Fully completed IGCSE Registration Form
• Registration fees (payable by cash, KNET, or credit card at the office)
• A photocopy of your valid passport or Kuwaiti Civil ID
• Three recent, coloured passport-sized photographs (Staple them to the form and write your name on the back of each one)

✍️ Step 2: Filling Out the Registration Form Accurately

Complete the form in BLOCK CAPITAL LETTERS using black or blue ink to avoid processing delays.

Section A: Personal & Contact Details

• Name: Write your name exactly as it appears on your official ID. Use underscores for spaces (e.g., NOOR__ABDULLAH__ALI).
• Identification: Provide your Civil ID or Passport number and its expiry date. You must bring this same, original ID to the exam venue.
• Contact Details: Provide a telephone number and an email address that are attended at all times. The British Council uses these to send your exam venue letter and results notifications.
• Unique Candidate Identifier (UCI): If you have taken Edexcel exams before, provide your UCI number here.

Section B: Special Needs Arrangements

If you have a long-term disability or medical condition requiring arrangements (e.g., extra time, adapted papers):

1. Tick “YES” in the “Do you have any special needs…” box on the form.
2. You must obtain a separate Health Form from customer service, complete it, and attach recent medical evidence.
3. The absolute deadline to submit all special needs documentation was 21 January 2016. All requests are subject to confirmation from Pearson Edexcel.

Section C: Selecting Your Subjects

Refer to the subject tables on pages 4-7 of the form. For each subject you wish to take:

1. Find your subject (e.g., Biology, code 4BI0).
2. Note the “Option” and “Papers” you will sit (e.g., for Biology, you must take both Paper 1 and Paper 2).
3. Clearly write the Subject Name and/or Subject Code in the “Subject Entry” section on page 8 of the form.
4. Sign your signature in the final column for that subject line on the main subject tables (pages 4-7).

📌 Subject Note: Be aware that some subjects have different “Options” (e.g., English as a Second Language has a standard option 4ES0 and an option with speaking 4ES0 A). Choose the correct one for your course.
