Essential EMQs for exams!
I used books 1 and 2 of the previous edition this year for finals and found them invaluable and FUN! if you have EMQs in your exam its important to practice the technique. Admittedly, the questions are a lot easier than those from my exam at GKT, but the answers are so well explained that you learn a lot from just going through the books. If you don't have EMQs in your exam however don't bother- it's best to practice questions in the same format as your exam.

great book!
this book and its companion provide a superb introduction to emq-style style questions. the explanations are detailed enough to enable the reader to understand fully why the answer has been arrived at.
definitely helped me to pass my finals!
