Hello,
Is the CGP book too simplified or does the Oxford textbook include too much information? For example, I was revising competition in communities and the textbook talks about how organisms compete for resources but the CGP book just lists the resources organisms compete with each other for. The specification does not include how organisms compete for resources. I really need opinions and advice on the both please as I would really like to achieve an 8.

Tbh the CGP is good for GCSE and Oxford is good for A levels as you need a lot of information for A levels. I would go for the CGP because I assume the oxford one is more expensive as you just need to know the specification at gcse level. However, I am biased as I havent experience Oxford textbooks at GCSE standard so hopefully someone can give a perspective on them.

As a science teacher, I would recommend Hodder Education series of text books: https://www.hoddereducation.co.uk/su...ogy-student-bo
