GCSE Equivalency Testing
The GCSE equivalency tests are often taken by prospective trainee teachers and sometimes by people looking to undertake other professional university courses like nursing. The GCSE Equivalency tests in maths, English and Science are required to enter initial teacher training if the applicant doesn’t have a grade C or equivalent in each subject. At QTS Maths Tutor we help people to prepare for their GCSE equivalency tests. We don’t just help with maths; we also provide support for the English and Science. We help with revision materials, exam booking, and additional support as and when is required. The video shows how the GCSE maths equivalency test works. The other tests work in a similar way.
Make sure you are aware of the difference between a GCSE equivalent and GCSE equivalency, these are different things.
The GCSE maths equivalency test must be taken if you don’t have a GCSE maths qualification, but you want to get into teaching or certain nursing courses. Many universities now accept the maths equivalency test as an equivalent to a GCSE maths qualification, especially for teacher training courses, but you must choose your equivalency testing provider carefully. The exam consists of two papers, a non-calculator and calculator paper that last 1 hour each. The pass mark for the exam changes depending on the difficulty of the paper. There are some maths equivalency testing practice papers available but usually we would recommend selecting the course option to get access to the full content of curriculum.

GCSE Science Equivalency Tests
We help people to prepare for the GCSE Science equivalency test as well as the stand alone Biology equivalency test which is often required for those applying to a teaching or nursing course. The course is made up of Biology, chemistry, and physics material. The science equivalency test is usually taken by prospective teachers who are entering into primary or secondary teaching. For primary teachers the science equivalency is often mandatory over the biology as they need to have this base knowledge to help with teaching the KS2 curriculum in school. For secondary courses learners often usually have the choice of biology or science equivalency. As the science is a single awarded combined science GCSE, there is no disadvantage to having to take this, there should be no more work to cover than the single Biology GCSE.
GCSE Biology Equivalency Test
The GCSE biology test contains similar content to the AQA specification. From enzymes to evolution, there are all the classical topics covered in the exam. The Biology equivalency is made up of 100 marks with the pass mark varying from paper to paper depending on the level of difficulty. Like the other equivalency tests you can take the exam from home with online invigilation with most equivalency testing providers. The exam is usually taken by those going into teacher traning but also those looking to access teaching and midwifery courses.
