I recommend A+ notes too! They have great questions that I found highly relevant to sacs.

Checkpoints? The entire book is a collection of past exams.

I brought the 2013 one, which has all the questions upto 2012. I purposely did this become, when end of year comes, i really want to do the 2013 one without knowing the questions/ o raving done them already, if this makes sense.
Is this a good idea?

Yes, it is, It's always a good idea to save the most recent exam for last, especially since 2013 is the start of the new study design (even though it hardly changed).

ahhh really? i saw on the further maths index that the accreditation period was 2006-2014 i think off the top of my head, i defiantly remember not last year, did they neglect changing it because of the minor changes?

tbh I'd say 2013 checkpoints are still too recent as it exposes you to too many exam questions from recent exams that you may not want to see before actually doing the papers

what did you use for biology this year? what would be a good year to get instead?
-
I used 2010 for bio
-
mhm, i should've done something like that. But i found a deal on ebay for 2013 checkpoints and 2 exam booklets (kinda like neap and kinda like atarnotes, its topic test and 3 exams at end).
Will you be using 2011ish ones next year for your subjects?

The AN Further Guide is structured in a way that you can get practice questions without ruining the VCAA past exams :)

And that is a really good thing.
It's a very good idea to hold off the official past papers until later in the year.
Personally I held off 2007 - 2012 pApers until just a week or two before the exams.

what kinds of brands and company's did you use for your subjects?

Everything I could find. Some companies made difficult papers, some has easier papers. It's good to get a feel for all sorts of further questions.
A quick search back through this subforum and you'll find a post where a few of us wrote about our perceived difficulty of papers from different companies.
Edit: have a read through here if you want =)
Hard further exams
