If so, what exam board were you on and did you use the exam board specific CGP revision guide or the general AS level biology/chemistry revision guide suitable for all specifications?
I don't understand this thread. If you've just finished your AS year, it's too late to worry about what you did or didn't revise properly. If you're going into your AS year, why resign yourself to crappy/limited revision before even starting?

I've been told you actually have to work to get an A at A Level. GCSE is so easy, esp. for separate sciences when memorising the revision guides can get you an A* easily if you can then apply knowledge a bit
I used the official textbooks and did all the exam paper style questions in that and did old spec AS level papers and then used cgp books before the exams to make sure I knew it. It didn't help for AQA Chem Unit 2 though...
I had them but I rarely used them except for the odd reference for information, I found the official Edexcel study guides were the best for my exams along with past papers.
I have proof that they make a wonderful replacement for a crappy education, for GCSE exams Obviously, if one has been to a good school then one would object...
