Hi, I do iGCSE Physics, so I think I can help.

ZNotes

ZNotes creates some pretty nice note summary pages, so I'd take a look at them.

Oxford Revision Guides

CIE Students can buy Oxford's Revision Guides from Amazon. They have summary notes and past paper questions.

Although it matches the Oxford Textbooks, they are applicable to all CIE Students. Here is the Chemistry one...

Letts Revision Guides

Although I haven't used them, Letts also make some revision guides. I'm not sure how good they are though.

Here is the Physics one...

CIE Website

If she looks on the website, the old spec is still extremely relevant and has all the spec papers and support materials.

She could print off the spec and make notes (making sure she completely understands all the spec points along the way).

Papa Cambridge

This site has a tonne of past papers for all CIE Subjects

Robert Martin Notes

These are by far the best notes I've found for iGCSE Science. \<3 He is literally my god right now (Thanks Robert, you're so amazing!!!)

I hope this helps a bunch! Good luck to her.

There's so many more points I want to make to this, but the character limit prevents me from doing that. I'll keep it simple and make just one more recommendation.

For the love of god, please try your best to read this book, its literally life changing. It's how I've learnt how to learn and it will change your life too. Read it, apply it.

Hi there. Yes, I really hope this will help you out! Please send an email over to [email protected] with your full name and age. I will then send the revision guide to you as a PDF.
This is the guide I've created:

Many thanks :)

I use [this one] (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Revision-Computing-Computer-Systems-Programming/dp/1444193848). Our teacher bought one for everyone in our class. It's very good and seems to cover all relevant information, only read the first 10 pages or so though, but so far it seems like a great resource.

It's a revision guide not a textbook, but I assume that's what you're looking for.

My brother has around 15 books on business and economics. I plan on reading them but also ordering

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Son-Also-Rises-Surnames-Princeton/dp/0691162549/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1464470016&sr=8-1&keywords=surnames+economics

A book about how surnames are derived from wealth. I find it intriguing but also because I want to do it for an EPQ :p

There are other books: Freakonomics, The Intelligent Investor, etc

I'm in the same position as you, as unfortunately there are nowhere near as many revision sources for sociology as other subjects. You should have the textbook which has all the keywords in, so I would make flashcards out of them and then test yourself on them. Also doing past papers is a good idea too, which you can find on the AQA website.

This is the revision guide http://www.amazon.co.uk/GCSE-Sociology-AQA-Revision-Practice/dp/0007350597/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458069835&sr=8-1&keywords=Sociology+gcse+aqa

Which a few people have said has been useful.

This is the textbook you should have in class

There is a £7.99 revision guide on Amazon which has EVERYTHING in it that you need - we have had no in-class teaching of the syllabus and this is what I've been using to teach myself into a high B in the paper. Very condensed notes but at the same time very detailed, highly recommend. Link below:

This is for biology there is one for physics and one for chemistry we had to get them from Amazon for £20 each, school recommended them and so do I

I used this to get an A in geography. But I did AQA Geography A and not Geog B so you won't want this one. I've found this revision guide by the same person that looks like it may be of use?

Looks like this. Can't be sure tho, not my image.

I've been getting F's in RE (doing Luke's Gospel) up until about 2 weeks ago, pulled it up to an A thanks to one book. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AQA-GCSE-Religious-Studies-Gospel/dp/1408504588 This is the same one that I used but with Mark, and I don't know if you'll have enough time to get it but it's been an absolute life saver

hey there. For me to enroll in my physics A-level next year in my preferred sixth form i require an A* and was just wondering if this is possible using the official AQA revision guide.

I will be doing past papers as well but have you ever used this before, and if this isn't recommended do you have any suitable alternatives?
