Not really, considering it's only $88 for 1-4 people and $84 for >5 people. TSFX is $145/subject these "school holidays".
EDIT: Here's the site for Derrick Ha.

I'm going to VCESeminars for Biology purely because it's $34 for 6.5 hours and I can't afford ones like TSFX and Derrick Ha. I didn't go to any for the mid-year and I did alright but Unit 4 Bio is draining my soul.

My Personal Reviews of the lectures that i've attended.
TSFX - Physics
Start of Unit 4, Winter School. was terrible. didnt learn anything, the speakers were... alrite i guess to put it in a nice way(euphemism ;) .
Psychology
This was however different, they made it very interesting and exam strategies .
i didn't study unit 3 psych at the start of the year, sacs was 68/100. didnt pay attention. after attending the winter school i received a B. was horrified as i was expecting a c average.
Acess Education
-Physics
Just a few exam tips and stuff, useful if your a A+ student who is going in for every single mark
Jacks - Methods + Physics
His good with explaning stuff but depends on your learning style, i require a one on one tutor to understand concepts, so only good for exam revision when he hands out his special packs.
I Currently attend Maths methods 10week program + extensive revision class by TSFX
I find it useful since my teacher at school is pretty shat compared to all the other maths methods teacher. The 10 week program is ONLY USEFUL IF; you have a terrible teacher, otherwise they just go pretty much the same stuff in the essentials book. If you have a good teacher then just get a private tutor. more useful imo . i have both so it kinda works out for me in the end just a bit more $.$ !!
Lectures I Will Attend
TSFX- Extensive Workshop for Maths Methods
- Apprarently these are very good, they cost about $275. My friend did it last year and his methods was around 70%-80% for sacs. he said they taught him concepts from the start of the year and exam strategies which helped him achieve a 39 RAW.
Derrick Ha simply because my friend went to his tuition, she receive something like 46 or 48 raw. she says his pretty good and i like the style of his site . $88
Year 12 Lectures.
-Psychology, simply because my teacher said it was good and it was booked out in unit 3. $46
CPAP.
-Business Management, they're assessors . 2 assessors and specialise in the business subjects, so i kinda expect them to be good in terms of exam strategies. $30
VATE
-English Language. Only the company that does it and my teacher went to there programs and said it was pretty decent. So migh be worth it. $44
Why didn't i choose Neap?
I didn't choose Neap for any of my lectures simply because i disliked the way they present themselves in terms of site and professionalism in real life.
Please feel free to enquire about the ones im attending or have already attended, be more then happy to save you $.$, but keep in mind that my learning style and conditions are different ;) .
