    I got a B1 last year and hoping for an A1 this year. I didn't study over the summer. Just learn 1-5 really well,6 and 7 for short questions. That's what I did anyway,but they're making Q.1 in particular harder,but if you know it inside out you'd be fine.

    practise the answering technique for the exam papers - state your answer, explain your answer and give an example. The level of study you require and someone else requires can be very different depending on how well you can learn the material. It also depends on how much work you have put in this year. If you haven't put the work in this year, then yeah, you probably should do a bit over the summer to catch up on what you haven't done

    I'd advise not studying over the summer. Its a bad idea IMO. How much of it will you really remember come the following June. Its a long course but not so long you need to study in the summer.

    I'd advise looking at unit 6 & in particular unit 7. (the EU, SEM etc) Its a lovely question. Unit 7 comes up on Q3 in the longs every year.

    Make sure you know your ABQ chapters inside out. Theres no option in the question so if you don't know the answer to a particular topic your screwed.

    Exam technique is vital. Practice writing out questions and not just learning them. Get a set of papers and do all short questions. At least 5 ones will repeat themselves again if not more.
