Product Description
Product Description
Student Unit Guides are perfect for revision. Each guide is written by an examiner and explains the unit requirements, summarises the relevant unit content and includes a series of specimen questions and answers.
There are three sections to each guide:
Introduction - includes advice on how to use the guide, an explanation of the skills being tested by the assessment objectives, an outline of the unit or module and, depending on the unit, suggestions for how to revise effectively and prepare for the examination questions.
Content Guidance - provides an examiner's overview of the module's key terms and concepts and identifies opportunities to exhibit the skills required by the unit. It is designed to help students to structure their revision and make them aware of the concepts they need to understand the exam and how they might analyse and evaluate topics.
Question and Answers - sample questions and with graded answers which have been carefully written to reflect the style of the unit. All responses are accompanied by commentaries which highlight their respective strengths and weaknesses, giving students an insight into the mind of the examiner.

What's in the book is great, it's just there's not a great deal of it.
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Very useful book for my teaching & for my students from AQA and bang up to date - and reasonably priced.
Format:Paperback
Bought this a couple of months ago now, and it's been brilliant. Quite a few within my geography class have bought it too, and all of us think it was well worth buying. The only thing missing are the case studies for each section - although if they were included, they might not be the ones studied by everyone and would push the price up. As it stands, the book provided an excellent base for revision as it is really concise and only the essentials are included. Background knowledge is assumed in parts, but this will have been covered in AS Level.
The second section of the book is also really good as exam technique is something that comes with practice. I find that it really helped with this topic, as it gives example questions and model answers. Examiner style comments are also added at the end, and a mark scheme appears at the beginning. The questions are realistic, and could be tackled before looking at the answer if you wanted.
This book really is a must have for anyone that is going to take A2 geography in the future.
