Excel is my personal favourite.

I'd have to agree, Excel study guides are really useful.

Looks like Excel wins.

Use Study Guides if you're really desperate. Excel has good books for a certain range of subjects, whereas Macquarie usually has its best books in the humanities area.

Textbooks
Maths Ext: Cambridge, Fitzpatrick, Terry Lee, Maths in Focus, Understanding, Couchmann's book, Past Paper books
Chemistry: Jacaranda, Chemistry Contexts, Spotlight, Dot Point, Surfing Chemistry
Physics: Jacaranda, Spotlight, Physics Context etc etc

So, only use study guides if you're in actual need of it or you're going to supplement it as a summary guide for your syllabus.

Cambridge or Macquarie.

Excel could do a lot better with their study guides.

A lot BETTER.
