This book also comes with a CD-ROM containing extracts of the corresponding maths course books (for both foundation and higher tier), which are well written and give plenty of worked examples (NOTE: the CD-ROM contains pdf files that are copy protected. This means you cannot print them out). Recommended. text/html 2007-07-16T10:54:38+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:0340758708?rev=1184583278&do=diff [Image of front cover]An excellent book for OCR foundation students, this book comes from the pens of the examiners themselves and includes good advice on revision and exams in general and also a “revision record”. Each topic has explanatory text (seemingly a rarity in OCR books) and examples followed by “now try these” questions. Most useful are the worked exam questions that show you the sorts of things examiners are looking for, while further exam questions provide plenty of practice for both… text/html 2007-07-16T10:55:59+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:0340801913?rev=1184583359&do=diff [No front cover image available]This is the book required for intermediate and higher level OCR students studying modules 7 and 8 of the course. This has the same format as the module 9 and 10 book and the same positive and negative criticisms apply. A good book for revision but not one that explains concepts very well. text/html 2007-07-16T11:02:27+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:0340801921?rev=1184583747&do=diff [Image of front cover]This is the book required for higher level OCR students studying modules 9 and 10 of the course. On the plus side the book contains calculator and non-calculator exercises, exam tips and tips on how to approach certain problems. Most usefully it contains “You should already know” boxes that state what you need to know for the exam. The only criticism my students have had of this book is that it doesn't explain topics very deeply - it tends to present what you need to know w… text/html 2007-07-16T11:02:47+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:0340856149?rev=1184583767&do=diff [Image of front cover]Probably a 'must-have' for higher level OCR students, this book is edited by the OCR chief examiner and includes good advice on revision and exams in general and a “revision record”. This book has a similar format to the foundation level book: each topic is covered in a double-page spread, and consists of explanatory text and examples followed by “now try these” questions. Contains worked exam questions that show you what the examiners are looking for and there are plenty o… text/html 2007-07-16T10:54:19+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:0340856157?rev=1184583259&do=diff [Image of front cover]An excellent book for OCR foundation students, this book comes from the pens of the examiners themselves and includes good advice on revision and exams in general and also a “revision record”.

Contains summaries for each chapter and lots of practice questions. There are also some exam tips. text/html 2007-07-16T10:19:05+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:1405831413?rev=1184581145&do=diff [Image of front cover]Again tied into the new 2006 mathematics specification, this book by Tony Banks isn't one I've seen but apparently “offers a step-by-step approach that builds confidence and helps to improve results.” Can't be bad.

However, Simon Singh does cover fundamental aspects of number logic that you will need to know for your exams and they are explained very well. Certainly worth reading. text/html 2007-07-16T11:15:52+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:1843155125?rev=1184584552&do=diff [Image of front cover]Like all Letts books, this is very comprehensive with lots of examples and lots of questions for you to test your knowledge. Note that this is a revision book not a text book - in that it does not give complete explanations of topics and techniques. My one criticism is that some of the worked examples given in the book can be a little confusing and not very easy to follow. However, this book is recommended by more than a few schools and colleges. text/html 2007-07-16T11:09:42+00:00 http://yourmathstutor.info/wiki/bookshop:aqa_foundation_gcse?rev=1184584182&do=diff AQA Foundation GCSE books currently for sale are listed below.
