Superb!!!
This product is super. It gives clear, thorough explanation of all of the topics in the OCR A2 syllabus, accompanied by brilliant diagrams that help to improve understanding and make processes, structures etc easier to learn. The practise questions and examination questions are great for essential exam practice. The whole book is nicely supported by the excellent Exam Cafe CD - rom. A must have product for anyone studying OCR A2 Biology.

Excellent content and easy layout
Used this to help me revise my own subject knowledge as a sceince teacher. I found the book very easy to read and the layout was great.

Too much going on,,,,,
The book covers the specification really well but the topics are totally disorganized and the language used isn't the easiest to understand. And there's wayyy too much overdescription of some topics and it leaves you a bit exhausted!! Overall its really good to learn from this book as it's really hard and anything else you have will seem much easier to you after, which is why i suggest you also get the OCR CGP biology revision guide which is excellent at breaking things down into their simplest form (but not quite sufficient to be a sole text book!)
