AQA GCSE Biology Revision Guide Paperback – May 11, 2017

Purchased to supplement the required course text book Oxford AQA Biology 3rd Edition isbn: 978 019 835 9371.Like the the text book it is colourful and detailed. At first glance (I am two weeks into the course) the contents appear overwhelming but I got it because it is the same layout and design as the text book, which I will be used to working from.Each subject is presented as bullet points, without the detailed explanations in the text book.Each group of subjects is followed by Summary Questions and each chapter ends with Practise Questions, which appear to be similar to exam questions. Space is not provided on the questions pages to write in the book. Answers to all are in the back of the book.Information for Higher Tier studying is highlighted but you have to look for it. (I have purchased the Higher Workbook as well).These Oxford books appear excellent so far but I have also bought other revision books in the search for a simpler visually uncomplicated content.

This book is perfect for AQA Biology revision. The way the information is laid out in this book is so easy for me to just get in my head. I used to purchase other revision books from CGP and Collins. Both aren't as good as this one. Sometimes some of the information that you need to learn aren't there. But this book has it all. Obviously since its an OXFORD guide. Sometimes when I try to revise information from CGP books, it takes up lots of time. Hours and hours of revising and understanding. But since I started revising from this book, I been revising for only an hour and 30 minutes. This is perfect for me!

Honestly, makes life easier. I think they’re better than CGP books because of the fonts and these books are smaller, got less info in them, but they’re good to cover a topic in not masses of info. You could cover topics a lot faster than the CGP books

This was actually really useful for revising from and even after lockdown I was able to look back through stuff and re-learn it. Being in year 11 when we already missed so much of year 10 has made it difficult to get back to the point I was at before lockdown. These textbook helped greatly on catching up.

Fantastic book for the price and even though came from the states it was quicker than som suppliers in U.K.
