Designed to increase your confidence, help you recognise different question types, understand connections between concepts, reflect on progress and manage test anxiety. A wealth of questions and activities improve your ability to recall knowledge and answer effectively. Your awareness and familiarity with exam language is increased by the focus on command words, time management, and the marks breakdown within and across exam papers. Self-assessment checklists and sample answers also help to deepen learning.

Includes digital access and over 400 auto-marked questions and past-paper question practice. All other answers available via Cambridge GO.
