Lol at Continuum.

I have all the maths books except Cambridge... (e.g. Leading Edge, Excel, Couchmanm, Fitzpatrick and etc.)

Not really worth it if you ask me. Stick with Coroneous and Fitz and you'll do fine.

I have LE for Economics at school and I think it's good in some areas, but it's a little too brief. Riley would be much better! Lucky for me that my school gives us both!

I don't know. I just have a large variety of books to try out as many questions as possible (which are all varying at the same time).

Hmm.. that is a good point. I have about 6-7 different maths textbooks that I pull out to do Maths in before exams and they are good practise (although, I hardly touch Cambridge).

Cambridge does tend to repeat the same type of question. That's truly a shame.

Yeah they do. But the questions are hard enough.

I was just curious to know, how do you know so much about Cambridge if you don't even own a copy?

I used to borrow it. I borrowed the Year 11 Mathematics Extension 1 and did majority of Development questions.

Some are incredibly hard but in general, they are pretty good practices. But my primary source of info is Fitzpatrick. It's an awesome book. If I get Band E4 in Mathematics Extension 1, I shall pay a visit to J.B.Fitzpatrick as a token of my sincere appreciation.

haha. I think we should all do that. Fitz is awesome.

Re: Recommended Texbooks/Study Guides?

I've seen this really old Fitz textbook in my library and flicked through the exercises, they seem really good. It's my first experience with Fitzpatrick.

Is it just me getting a weird edition, or are there only very few topics in the index? I really have no idea how this particular textbook works.

My Fitz starts off at Chapter 20 ...

Did you buy the 3U one? Because the book is an extension of the 2U one. There should be around 26 Chapters in all.

Re: Recommended Texbooks/Study Guides?

Ok... I must've gotten some weird version...

Is anyone bothered enough to post up a picture of the front cover of a recent edition?

Here's what my one looks like (excuse my messy table):

Re: Recommended Texbooks/Study Guides?

Woah, thanks a bunch!

I'll try to look out for the book.

On the left hand corner is that the Dixon and O'Mahoney Economics textbook? My Economics teacher doesn't seem to like it (says it's good for band 4). I like it but I can't find it in the shops.

Re: Recommended Texbooks/Study Guides?

Fitzpatrick ftw!
We've got the same version, but I'm pretty sure mine is an older copy. Wish I had a newer copy...

LOL thanks! That's just me practising some maths on scrap paper

Do you mean Leading Edge? Yeah I have that book from my school (just dumped it on my table on Friday ). I'm not too sure where you can buy it from, though.

Oh and my school gives us Riley and LE as workbooks
