Customer Reviews

ok, if a B grade satisfies you
this book is seriously frustrating. it takes the fun out of biology. I USED THIS TO THE BEST OF MY ABLILITY. on the 6th of march 08, i opened my results. i was absolutely annoied that a "B" grade was staring in my face. the book has no contents page, no index, no glossary, unhelpful answers page layout.

the comments are very "sterile" as in: this answer shows no understanding, the candidate shows no awareness... etc...

when it came to unit 2, there were several missing topics. this includes how to prove that DNA is the genetic material and the protein coat is not etc...

when it came to answeing questions from the exam, i was usually left guessing the answer because the book would not mention this

i would recommend a book which would be lengthy and talkative. it is a long procedure, but id rather not be short handed in the exam!

Best revision guide for Biology specification AQA - A
This book is extremely helpful. It has clear diagrams, text is concise, 100% syllabus related...there couldn't be a better revision guide for Bio AQA spec A!

wow
What a book. I was struggling with my biology so my teacher recommended i buy this book. It goes over everything in easy to remember sections and it is very readable. Since buying this book my grade had shot up from being predicted a D, to now an estimated A. Buy it, trust me it's worth it.
