Product Description

Review

Reviews of previous edition:

“The book is ever so helpful as a back up if you don’t understand parts of the syllabus in class. It also is an excellent aid when revising for the subject when you actually have the module exam.”

“This book is amazing. I did the AQA syllabus for my Biology A Level, and I used this book and this book alone to revise for my exam (no notes, no big textbook, nothing else) and I got 94% for the module. The only trick to this book is that every sentence is something you need to know and memorise. I found this particularly useful - you don't waste time revising things that you're not sure you need to know or not. This doesn't mean that the revision book is hard to understand, either; everything is explained very clearly. If you memorise all the material in this book you are guaranteed a (very high) A grade - it misses nothing out.”

--This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Review

Reviews of previous edition:

"This book provides a brilliant summary of just the stuff you need to know for this really hard module! It's a bargain too! It goes through everything in exactly the same terms and order as it does in the syllabus - all definitions are highlighted and makes revision reasonably enjoyable and easy."

“Thanks to this book I went up probably 3 grades! I revised solely from this book for about 3 hours a day over a 2 or 3 week period. I got 85/90 in the exam so thanks very much to the author. Recommended!”

“Any A level Biology student who is without these books is sorely missing out! Ensure you have learnt exactly what information you need and make sure you know it - buy these books!”

Essential Companion 24 Mar 2012
Format:Paperback
I found this book incredibly helpful when it came to learning the unit content and revising for the exam. It breaks everything down in line with the syllabus (so you know that you're learning everything you need to). It has a great layout and everything is simple to follow. It also contains some exam questions with answers as well as a glossary. If you're studying AQA Biology at A-Level then this book is essential for Unit 4! I wish I had had the Unit 1 and 2 books when studying for those exams because I know that they would have helped!

(Unit 5 - Like the books for the previous units, this book is an essential companion and is extremely useful for revision. However, I have found that the Unit 5 book is a little vague on part of the DNA topic - so it's important that you read the official AQA textbook as well, to make sure you don't miss anything.)

A Great Companion 10 Mar 2012
Format:Paperback
This revision guide breaks the syllabus down into manageable chunks and clearly outlines all the relevant areas of the course by providing exam style questions, worked examples and a very useful glossary full of key terms. With the help of this guide I achieved a grade A in my exam however, it should be warned that I found that this book missed out some vital bits of information which other textbooks and revision guides provided instead. I would say use this as an extra revision tool but do not depend solely upon it for exam success.
