This revision guide is 91 pages long. It is composed of closed questions that cover every point of the 2015 0654 syllabus for all three sciences. Pupils complete the revision guide by answering all the questions which gives them a summary of the whole course in one book. This is an essential revision tool and really helps pupils to structure their revision time and should improve their grades. This is the version for 2015 exams in June and November. 2016 version to follow. The price of this resource is set high because you can make as many copies as you like for the pupils in your classes. This is considerably cheaper than buying the required number of copies of any revision guide book. PLEASE NOTE THAT ANSWERS/SOLUTIONS ARE NOT INCLUDED.
