I have Revise Wise for Science and French and I'm finding them useful. I have Shortcuts To Sucess for History and I'm finding it useful.
What other books do you think should I get a revise book for? I was thinking Geography, but people say RW isn't good for Geography?
What are the good ones?
I use Rapid Revision for Geography! I find it Brilliant! Same as you for French and History but I use Unfolded Essentials (or something :P) for Science

revise wise for history really isnt good i have it and nt nearly enough detail, aswell as sme f the facts bein inaccurate... so i got shortcuts and its way better! have revise wise for French, science, business, Irish and home econmics and I find them to be really helpful. For geography I just make notes from the book and do exam questions and i get on fine

Usually that's the case but not with History. I got Shortcuts To Sucess as it didnt have too much words on each page
and has pictures to explain and was condensed enough. It's thickness is smaller than the History Revise Wise, which was dull in comparison and harder to learn. It had pages on things that weren't nessesery like fulchta fiadhs and left out some vital PIHs. So I went with shortcuts to Sucess. 0 -

Histroy Revise Wise was actually my favourite! An hour of revision with it the night before the history exam easily bumped me up 15%, there is no excess info in those books.
Not saying all Shortcuts to Success books are bad, the science one seemed quite good, but each to their own I guess!0 -
