About this title

Review

'This revision guide is an excellent supplementary resource for our students. It clearly explains and demonstrates the key content and exam skills required for success. The summary tables and key study content are easily accessible and retainable by students. The interactive, structured format of the revision guide allows students to demonstrate their learning at each key point and the extensive practice exam questions at the end of each section provide invaluable practice. This revision guide is a key tool in our delivery of the GCSE and I would highly recommend it to both students, and teachers alike.' - Sharon Hedger, Head of Psychology, De Lisle College, UK.
