Is the Cambridge text book enough for Methods

[Biology24123]

Should I get any extra books because it seems like cambridge has a lot of questions of different type. What do you guys think

[Swagadaktal]

extra books as in extra practice exams? Yes
Extra books as in not extra practice exams? No
Extra practice exams? Yes
Practice exam questions? Yes
Non extra practice exam questions? No
Did i also mention you should try to do morep ractice exam questions than book questions?

I am a huge fan of the new Cambridge books. This time around their interactive online content is actually interactive, and it's super great. For learning I recommend it 100%, they've nearly always had good good examples but now they have videos too. For revision they're also great - the revision chapters are a pretty standard feature in maths textbooks but they also have tests and printable worksheets which provide near-instant feedback.

Pretty much what Swag said though - in my mind you shouldn't need more than the Cambridge book (well actually, more than one textbook in general) to learn the content, so if you're going to spend money spend it on practice exams or more and harder questions in general.

What would you suggest for exam type questions (not the ones with full exams). Thanks

I know some people will disagree, but I'm a fan of Checkpoints. There are quite a number of questions in them to keep you preoccupied.

Does anyone know if Cambridge has worked examples for methods 1/2?

It used to, should still.

The 3/4 and 1/2 books are basically identical, the only differences is what each is actually teaching. Things like layout, interface, etc. are identical between the two.

worked examples online come start of school term

Can't help you there, I've never felt like I've needed anything other than the practice exams provided by my school and my textbook. Sorry

Haven't used it but don't see why it's worth the money when you could just print an exam online instead of using a book that contains exams? Or am I missing something.

true! but my school doesnt give out many exams, plus i think NEAP exam questions are harder than the VCAA (they were for my subjects last year)

Check textbooks summaries thread. Essentials is the best imo.
