Hi guys, did any of you guys buy the Essential MM CAS solutions supplement? If so, did it help and is it worth buying?

Thanks

I think it has worked out solutions for most questions in the textbook (or every second question, I'm not sure). It's rather expensive and I the worked examples in the textbook itself and the answers behind the book for all the exercises are adequate...

So it's not worth buying? I think it's like 30 bucks or something.

It was great for me because I left things to the last minute when I couldn't get help from the teacher. So that would be my teacher for the weekend when I speed learn the chapter

Yes, it is.
they're mainly the extended response.
i have Essential Methods ( yr 11) Solutions supplements and i haven't even used it.
personally, i wouldn't spend too much on them.

if you're Sure you're going to use them wisely,and effectively, then perhaps it may be good idea however, other than that. Don't.

Best regards,

No, extended response is only in book form (hence this thread)

Well I guess its logical to say: buy it if you will do it not if you WANT to do it. Many don't get the time or can't be bothered doing so many questions. So make that clear before you make your choice.
