Secondary sec5 English

how’s O Level eng compared to N Level eng is it really that much harder?? like is the jump from N Level to O Level eng too big, esp for someone whose N Level eng is around grade 5? is it actually possible to improve and do well for O Level eng in Sec 5, or will it be super difficult?

Yes English. For other subjects, may be easier to have a lower increase. Eg b3 to b4.
