less stress more success

dr.barbie

God, these books are like gold dust! Cant believe how helpful they are, especially economics and chemistry!! Thank you "less stress more success"!- they seem to do exactly what they say on the tin!

Rapid revision chemistry is great for the experiments too.

I agree that the economics one is really good, as do all of my friends. one of the best in the series. as far as i know, or according to my economics teacher, the writer of the book is on the economics exam commission dealy. he gives pointers and everything. it's better than the history one, though that's alright. i have the book by the same author so it's a bit repetitive. the french one seems quite good too!

GrumPy

meh.

The guy who wrote the economics less stress is the economics teacher in my school.

The Biology one is incredibly poor

Aporia

for subjects like biology and business i can't see them helping.

but...

the german and art history ones are definitely worth buying

abercrombie

also from my experience from last year the accounting one is poop.

I actually have the Biology one and thought it was a great help. The maths ones are ok.

I was wondering how good is the Business Studies book and the Geography LSMS is?

dr.barbie

I find the business one is good for revision but we are lucky that we have the best business teacher ever and she makes out the easiest to revise notes. But thats beside the point......... Im thinking of getting the history (coz I hate the subject and the textbooks) and geography (just to have all necessary info in one place- not a big fan of the geography textbooks either!) Anyone have these, are they worth the few quid??

Muiriosa

I've got the geography and french books of these.

The geography is very detailed but quite good compared to other books I've seen.

As for the French, I'm dissappointed with that one. No help at all. Or maybe it's just that French is impossible!

Less stress more success books

Business- Class! seriously if you do Business and havent bought this book buy it now!
Economics- Alrite
Geography-Rubbish (just a dumbed down version of the geography textbook by the same publisher)
English- Too detailed but good i suppose
French(Pass)- Good
Irish- Good

How's the physics one? I've got Pat Doyle as my teacher (teaches in my school and the institute), and he's pretty good, although I tend to forget everything pretty quick, so I need a good source of basica revision..

ive heard hes like the best teacher in the country

The physics rapid revision one is good. And Declan Kennedy writes ones of the chem books for the Lc (I had it for 3 years and I've already forgotten it's name!) and he wrote the Rapid REvision book for chemistry, so if you're getting one, get that. It's really good.

Lord Oz

The chemistry rapid revision book is brilliant. It's basically a heavily condensed version of the textbook. I highly recommend it. I know lots of people who use it and think it's great.

Tula

anyone know a good revision book for biology then?
Irish pass LSMS is good and music is alright
