NEAP Overdrive v. Booster Packages?

[kitty_rae]

Does anyone know if it's worth getting the overdrive package for NEAP lectures? Or is the booster really enough?
Has anyone done the overdrive package before? Is it worth it?

thanks

In my opinion, if your school provides a decent number of practice exams, you really don't need to waste your money buying extra materials. If you're set on buying something from NEAP, I would save some money and buy the cheaper version. Note, however, that if you're struggling, I would first, go speak to your teacher to get additional help, second, get a competent tutor, and only when you have exhausted the first two, then would I spend money on these materials.

Many of my friends purchased such items last year, paying for revision lectures and TSFX study programs. Most said they felt as though they were a waste of money and the ones who found it useful said that they regretted purchasing these items because our teacher was a much better resource.

In addition, there are numerous free online resources available including the ATARNotes lectures held throughout the year. I attended a few of these and found the Physics one particularly helpful.

If you need tutoring, I might be able to help. I finished VCE last year.

Hope that all helped! (:

Thanks for the help! What subjects did you do? I'd be interested in some tutoring.
Mostly for chemistry.

I did chem and methods last year, I'd be willing to tutor in the inner-eastern suburbs or alternatively in the city e.g. at the state library (:
