Product reviews...
I tried the book, over the recommended 8 weeks, but personally thought that the ratings of 'The ultimate exam prep book' and 'no student can afford to be without' were largely over rated. I would Not recommend this book to anybody. It may contain actual assessments and other things, but it doesn't tell how to do the equations, for example it may show 1+1 = __ and in the answers have '2' but it doesnt show how 1+1=2
Its not a training programme, it's like showing someone something, expecting them to do it but not showing them how.

I used the book to review the whole years work and to see whether I needed to use my textbook for more detail. It is not a textbook it just gives a lot of exam type questions. However in saying that the answers are very detailed. I would give it 8 out of 10 as a good book for exam review. I even achieved a couple of excellents so it can't have been too bad.
