About this ebook
Important maths exams coming up? Worried that you will fail-again? Wondering how some students always seem to get the top marks?
Whatever your current level, this ebook will show you how to use a simple, proven, five-step system to ensure that you can achieve grades that you previously thought were impossible.
Written by an experienced maths teacher, private tutor and GCSE exam marker who specialises in helping students to pass major maths exams, this ebook will show you:
-why what you do AFTER a maths lesson can be more important than what you do in the lesson;
-the most common reason for low maths grades and how anyone can overcome it;
-how to find out exactly what content you need to know;
-where to find the best revision resources AND how to use them;
-what techniques you MUST use in the exam to boost your grade even further;
-why you can’t always rely on your school to help you pass (but how you can smash through their targets);
This ebook is not a textbook and does not explore specific maths topics in detail. Instead, it shows you HOW to study the subject efficiently using the best modern resources that will have the most impact on your maths grade.
