  • Use throughout the course to consolidate topic knowledge and progressively develop exam technique

Students re-visit all content from every Year 1 topic while developing all-important exam technique.

Comprehensive topic coverage through A Level Paper 1/2 exam-style questions:

  • 180 multiple choice questions – ideal for rapid topic assessment

  • 60 data-response questions (9- & 16-markers) – practice analysis for Year 1 mocks / AS exams

An extremely impressive resource which is thorough in its coverage... to find such an extensive resource is very pleasing...

...I particularly like the depth... the breakdown of the practice questions from multiple-choice to 16 mark questions is very good... gives teachers different means by which they can assess students understanding...

...Excellent for using within class or revision or for setting as a homework

What do teachers say about this resource? (9823)

Effective resources that will support teachers in assessing student understanding of topics after being taught in class- useful for in class assessment or homework tasks... The sample suggested answers provide clear guidance on what is expected from students in order to achieve full marks from answering the question- will be useful in class to compare with their own answers when providing feedback how to improve... The wide range of multiple choice questions for each of the 6 units are wide ranging and varied, making them excellent exercises to use in class or for homework purposes... The research tasks promote independent learning and stretch and challenge, which is good... the key term list is useful to provide students so as to support their grasp of key terms if teachers were to set as homework for them to define or complete prep reading on... a rigorous resource that would be instrumental to informing Teaching and Learning to any department that possesses this resource.

An extremely impressive resource which is thorough in its coverage of the new AQA AS Business Studies specification. It has not been easy to find resources that tackle the questions in the specification so to find such an extensive resource is very pleasing... I particularly like the depth given to each of the six sections of the AS specification, the breakdown of each section into multiple choice, short answer, data response and research tasks gives teachers different means by which they can assess students understanding. Also having clear answers makes my job as a teacher much easier... By giving writing frames it can help students to develop a clear technique of structuring their answers which hopefully by the time of their exam they will have perfected and benefit in their final grade... With this being a new qualification it is crucial to have a resource like this as there are no past papers to work from this year. This resource would be excellent both for using within class or revision or for setting as a homework. With having the answers, they could be given to students to help them prepare for their final AS/A Level exams... I like the layout in the context that the sections are done in specification order so it is very easy to know where everything is placed. Also the breakdown of the practice questions from multiple-choice to 16 mark questions is very good... It obviously follows the new AS specification exactly in terms of the six assessed areas being covered individually. Also the practice questions structure is as the specification structure assessment. It interprets the specification very closely, especially with regards to questions linked to theorists which play a much bigger part in the new specification.

Student and teacher friendly resource, with clear learning objectives, focusing for the better preparation of the student for the exam while making the teacher's life easier... Multiple choice questions emphasize definitions and basic understanding while short answers and case studies provide a deeper understanding, make theory practical and enhance learning.

Matches specification well. Clearly laid out - matches real exam paper... coverage of all elements, especially quantitative skills, match the examination requirements well
