Title: Should I get VCE check points or A + Practice Exams
Post by: Peter1998 on November 17, 2015, 10:05:18 pm
Hey, I'm just wondering between what practice exam I should get for methods or for any particular subject in relating to
Checkpoint VS A + Practice Exams.

For example: A PLUS NOTES = http://www.lilydalebooks.com.au/Products/A-MATHEMATICAL-METHODS-VCE-UNITS-3-4-EXAM-1-8986

Checkpoints = CHECKPOINTS VCE MATHEMATICAL METHODS CAS UNITS 3&4 2016 + QUIZ ME MORE

Like which one is better and is A + even worth getting

Get both, they're both pretty nice resources.

Although if i had to decide, i'd take A+ > Checkpoints

Checkpoints for maths are pretty sparse, and they're just VCAA questions anyway. If you wanted practice I'd just pick stuff off Methods/Methods CAS resources from previous study designs :P But yes, I used Checkpoints for Maths this year for SAC preparation, they are handy because they group similar questions together, albeit not as much as for Sciences

Never understood why people got checkpoints. They're literally past VCAA exam questions, so when you start doing practice exams you've already seen a bunch of the questions, which is just going to inflate your scores.
