I will probably end up getting both, but Maths is my weakest subject. I already have the CGP revision guide, workbook and some past papers but somebody has told me that the Collins Total Revision Guide is good and the Exam Practice book. At the moment these are both on special offer on Amazon. I was wondering what people thought of these books (Collins). Thanks!

The CGP books are OK but nothing brilliant. The best books I would reccomend are;
the CGP complete revision and practice and GCSE Revision programme (higher) from www.zigzageducation.co.uk Both a bit pricey but can you put a price on your education?
Btw, the latter book is very good if your aiming for A*/A

They do seem a bit pricy. I am aiming for A/A*, and apparently the Collins books are good because they do step by step how to work things out and the Exam revision thing sounds good..

Buy it then!
Also if you need past papers, see the list available at www.mrmaths.com/exams/ and then request them via email

I think I am going to buy it, just wanted to know what people thought. I do AQA Maths, so thanks for the link, but am not doing it with Edexcel.
