Customer Reviews

Better for Foundation Tier!!!
This book is quite light-hearted, and as another review says, probably contains everything you need to pass- get a C grade. It doesn't, however, contain the information i would personally say you need for the A*-B Therefore is better for foundation. I have now bought the York Notes revision book, which is much better for higher grades!!!

A must have!
If you are studying this book for GCSE, I would 100% recommend you get this book. It is a fantastic resource and will definitely help you with your analysis and understanding of the book.
The guide goes into great detail and depth, some of which is not needed but interesting to read anyway. The guide is written in a way where many quotations from the book are incorporated into the guide. This helps you remember the quotations, and helps you in understanding how to use quotations effectively.
This guide provides everything you need to know about Of Mice and Men, including historical context and a fantastic comic-style summary which will aid you greatly in remebering when each event occured. A must have for every student studying this book, no matter what grade you are aiming for or which exam board you are on.

Great for GCSE!
This is a very good text guide to help with An Inspector Calls at GCSE level. It gives you a great insight into the play and explains things very well. But sometimes it doesn't go into a deeper analysis and description which is required if you want to get the higher marks. But it has greatly helped me with the understanding and knowledge that I have of the play.
