"The AS Book was an essential tool in raising students' grades - particularly in the MS1 paper. Now the A2 guide contains a wide range of resources for the Industry paper and excellent examples of coursework - Bell and Connell have done it again!" 5 star review on Amazon. "Many students purchased the book this year and those that took the WJEC AS Media Studies examination in January came to tell me how much they thought the book helped them, giving them the confidence boost they needed. I highly recommend this text as a revision aid and hope that the A2 book comes out very soon!" Head of Media and Film, WarringtonMore details
