Oxford Revise: AQA GCSE Biology Revision and Exam Practice Reviews

Top quality Biology Revision Guide This is an excellent A4 sized paperback revision book written for the AQA Biology Higher GCSE exam (best to check that the student is working towards this exam as all are a little different). The book includes loads of exam type questions which are really helpful. This book will suit a student who plans their revision well. I have worked in a scientific laboratory and this book opens the study of biology in a clear way ( plant life is described well). The revision booked is based on a three step revision plan 1. 'knowledge' an overview the requirements 2. 'retrieval' quick-fire questions and answers so Students can check out their knowledge 3. 'Practice' pages of exam-style questions. And answers are online. An excellent revision guide. * Amazon review *
Brilliant Biology textbook This is so much more than a revision guide. If you're looking for some simple last minute revision then this isn't going to help as this book is dedicated to those who revise throughout the course and regularly revisit forgotten stuff. In depth full coverage of the Higher AQA Biology specification. Excellent illustrations. Great questions and sample answers. Ideal for students and teachers. Highly recommended. * Amazon review *
Fantastic. Clearly structured and provides enough detail for the student to remember, without being over-simplistic. It is designed in a way it can be broken down into more manageable sections/sessions and a realistic study timetable can be scheduled and achieved. * Amazon review *
Well-designed and practical revision guide This is a well-designed and presented biology revision guide. The book covers twenty topics and each chapter is set out in the same way. There are two pages titled 'knowledge' and this is essentially a brief overview of the topic, there are then two pages titled 'retrieval' which contains quick-fire questions and answers so you can test your knowledge and finally there are several pages of exam-style questions. You will need to go online to find the answers to these questions. There are plenty of exam tips also scattered throughout the book. This book uses text boxes and colour to help organise the topics and made it easier to review. There are also plenty of diagrams and illustrations. I have used Oxford revision guides with the teens I work for and have always found them fantastic and these guides are just as good. * Amazon review *
