Gcse aqa geographers.....

Is this revision guide good for aqa? Currently, I don’t have a textbook or revision guide. I just use class but I think I should get one...
Thanks

I personally don't have that one, I recommend the CGP ones if your not sure. They have really good and clear notes and you can buy the practice questions and flashcards with them too.

Ok thank you, is that for aqa? And what grade did you get with them if you don’t mind me asking :smile:
Use the CGP guide! They’ve got it for a range of subjects and exam boards. I myself had the AQA Geography one :smile:

Will do, thanks again! :smile:
I have this textbook, it was provided by school. I think it's very good, and while I haven't used CGP Geography, I have used other CGPs mainly for science and they can feel a bit overwhelming at times, but this one is nice and spaced out. It's thicker, more like an actual textbook, but it contains lots of useful practice and exam questions, as well as revision activity ideas and exam tips too. I would recommend it, but CGP will also do you good :smile:

Hi! Yeah they’re for aqa. Sorry I’m in year 11 currently but so far I used them to revise for my mock and got a level 8. My friend used them last year because the school gave them and she came out with a 9. Without the exam of course.

Those are the ones :smile: They’re so good especially doing the exam questions right after the reading the revision guide. Or a couple of days later. Good for active recall.

Would you suggest the revision guide or textbook? Also how about if the books don’t have ur specific case studies :smile:
