Hang on a minute, these lectures do have their merits...

I found TSFX to be alright for Chem (good comprehensive notes), can't really speak anecdotally on the others. I've heard Connect Ed is doing very well, and it's hard to go past Derrick Ha for Methods of you're aiming very high.

That's true, I haven't denied that. That's just my opinion.

They can give you a couple of decent pieces of information, but really all you're paying for is a kick in the arse. You're not going to miraculously become a great student after a day of lectures unfortunately.

Well for physics if I didn't go to revision lectures I probably would have got ~25 as my study score. Instead managed a 40+.

Sure that's not a "great" student by my books, but it's still a decent result.

English- VATE and/or Connect (I did Literature with them though... I'm sure their English lectures are just as good)

I'm also curious about which company offer the best P.E and English lectures? I'm sure it can't be determined which is the best as there are so many.. but from what you've heard and experienced.

I'd vouch for Lex as the absolute best for PE. Students love him and he's a very engaging educator. Unfortunately, he's on exchange overseas atm. But I'm sure whoever Connect gets to take the lecture in his absence will be of a similar quality. Definitely recommend.

Hey Pi, which company's lectures did you go to?
