Yes (though not sure about BTEC).The date they give is from when you start teaching that course, so 2 years before the first time the GCSE is examined.

Yes - any claimed to be "for the 2016" or "for the 2017" specification will be for the 9-1, it should also say somewhere on the front "for the 9-1 exam".

English and Maths were reformed for assessment from June 2017 onwards, most of the others (all the ones that you're doing) are for 2018 onwards.

On another point, you might find the Hodder My Revision Notes series useful as an alternative, they are slightly more expensive but give you active-based revision tasks to complete :smile:
