Covers the whole spec and is very easy to access the different topics. The material involves a range of difficulties from simple knowledge checks like gap fills to more challenging questions to stretch all abilities like 12 mark evaluate questions.
Students like having the whole course laid out in front of them and can work through it at their own pace. It is interactive - students receive immediate feedback.
It's excellent value for money and will definitely help students to boost their knowledge of your subject.
