One of the best revisions guide books ever published
Right now I am currently studying for my GCSE and science is a particular weakness and struggle. Therefore my science teacher had recommended to purchase this revision book. Obviously I had obeyed what my teacher had said and brought the book about a year ago. Absoulte life safer, with this book I had improved my GCSE Science modular exam from a C to a A*.

Everything is split up into 6 sections under the headings: Environment, Inheritance and Selection, Patterns of chemical change, Structures and Bonding,Forces, Waves and Radiation.
Therefore you can pin-point the specific topics you have serious difficulties with and at the end of each sections. There is a summary page of all the key points needed in order to pass the exam. As well as some quick summary questions, just to make sure that you have learnt and know something about each topic.

I will without a doubt recommend this book to any GCSE student, browsing for a specific GCSE science revision guide book.
That's why I rate this book 5 STAR *****

A Supurb Revision Guide!
I am currently studying for my GCSE's and i have found that in science, especially if i don't have a very good teacher, this book has been amazing and a real life saver.

Don't fall into the trap of thinking that this is a school textbook, because it's not, it's a revision guide although it's as good as any science textbook i have ever worked from. It is absolutely jam-packed with bright colourful pictures to illustrate everything that has been said. The infomation is set out in a simple, straight-to-the-point way so you won't be bord after about ten minutes, like most revision guides.

The book is split into six different sections: Humans as Organisms, Maintenance of Life, Metals, Earth Materials, Energy, and Electricity, and it covers all three areas of science. At the end of each section there is a page of key points and also a page of summary questions which all go to helping you revise.

Every ten weeks, there is an external modular test, which counts towards your final GCSE grade, and i especially find this guide useful when revising for these, particularly as the infomation is not set out in a long winded way.

Like me, if you are doing your GCSE's, and you don't already have a copy of this revision guide, then i highly recommend that you buy a copy, and i'm sure you will find, like i have, that you marks will go up quite a bit. Bare in mind when buying this, that it is the revision gude for the 'Higher Tier' test paper, although there is one for the 'Foundation Tier' as well.
