Further Study Guide

[steph753]

Can anyone suggest a good study guide for further maths?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

You don't need a study guide as such for further if you have a good quality text book, instead get a book of practice questions and exams to assist you.

I would recommend Checkpoints as a must-have, also the Neap Smartstudy was ok but asked questions more difficult than the average VCAA exam.

IMO, study guides in FM are pretty useless. For subjects like chemistry and physcis, study guides simplified the concepts so that students can understand the subject to a greater extent- whilst also providing an extra mean of practice. With further, as you dont necessarily need the content to be simplified, the study guides are just there to give extra practice. Instead, however, you can get such practice from exams instead. And as jamison mentioned, checkpoints is pretty good as it groups together the questions, so as you go through the course, it can be used for each topic.

So no, i dont think study guides are useful in FM, but checkpoints is worth the 15 or 20 dollars. Your text book should do the trick.
