Reviews / Votes
"Can I take the opportunity to say that I think this is an absolutely brilliant book? The concept is fantastic - I know most AS textbooks nowadays include some advice about exams and examples of questions, but the idea of getting examiners to actually explain how scripts are marked, and show the candidates what two levels of student answers looks like is amazing. Louisa, Karen and Sara have done a wonderful job. And the layout is brilliant, too - plenty of variety to keep the student's interest up while revising." AS Law Examiner and ReviewerMore details
