What do teachers say about this resource? (12548)

Overall, very good. Lots of exam tips, with clear teaching of technique and with lots of examples. It would be useful at any stage of the course, not just in the run-up to exams... [The resource] demonstrates excellent knowledge and understanding of the different exam question types, the common problems students have with them and advice about how to be successful... I'm impressed by the level of thought and effort that has gone into it.

What do teachers say about this resource? (10307)

A really useful resource. [ZigZag] have approached it correctly and have produced a resource that is hard to find currently... I like the way the questions are discussed. The exam words defined is really useful. The good and bad answer examples are really good, students need to see this more and more to ensure that they know what they need to do to gain the marks... Fits the exam spec well... There are very few resources that look at exam questions in such depth... This is really useful to show the students the questions and how to approach them.

Helpful... The analysis sections enhance learning by cutting it up into precise steps so students of different abilities can work at their own pace... The educational value of the resource is getting pupils familiar with the exam format while at the same time consolidating their knowledge.
