    Alright, it's 25 days until the exam and **** is getting real. I've been noticing HUGE amounts of errors and incorrect answers at the back of my maths book (project maths 4, Macmillan) and it's driving me insane. I've been teaching myself everything so it's doubly confusing when my only resource, the book, is wrong.

    Does anyone know of a maths book for HL project maths that has a high level of accuracy and is clear? Thanks.

    Our teacher gave us photocopies of these books quite a bit:
    http://www.cjfallon.ie/book/effective-maths-book-1/
    http://www.cjfallon.ie/book/effective-maths-book-2/

    Much clearer and more concise than our other books. We never really did any exercises out of it though, only used it for the notes, so not sure how accurate it is on that front.

    The answers in the back of Effective Maths are very rarely wrong.

    During the LC, my school used Active Maths 4 and I felt it explained topics fairly adequately and also had very few errors, just make sure to have the latest version.

    At this stage of the year, imo, the best approach is constant SEC papers and example SEC papers.

    The Revise Wise books have been very helpful for me.
