I got the one for Paper 1 honours maths last year, they aren't that great to be honest. All that is on them is 2005, explaining how to do it, some really gay music that even when you silence it, still comes on, silly little games at the end of each question if you get the question right.

To put it simply, it is 1st year stuff with higher level maths questions stuck in...DEFINITELY not worth €40

this is really weird im actually installing it as i type ha,

it only cost me a tenner tho, my maths teacher took a tenner of all 10 of us and made copies of the disc (it better not have only cost him €40:D)

i havent tried it yet but my teacher reckons its pretty good but that it over simplifies things. Ill give ye my opinion when it actually installs (its taking long enough)

I think I used this once, your wan's voice is not pleasant to listen to and there's stupid games and it's insanely over simplified. Do NOT pay 40 euro for it. (I got mine for free, my teacher charged one to the school and gave us all a copy ;D)

Yes, it does. It spends ages telling you how to multiply out (3x+2)(x+4)...your sitting their thinking ya, I knew that from 1st year...just get onto the bit with the factor theorem in it...:mad:

Is it just me or does digital grinds crap sound gimmicky. Best way to learn anything is face to face with an actual teacher.

jus tried em there a while age.

Oversimplification is an understatement....it oversimplyfies it to the point where its more complicated that u began with.

Since i got it for a tenner i dont mind but i wouldnt even consider spending €40 on it.

it has funny videos as rewards tho haha:D

I don't normally write in these things but I thought it was good... some parts not so much but I just skip past those.

I've gone up a couple of grades easily since using them this year.
