    Two suggestions:

    First, practice and practice – work through every question in your Revision Kit, attempting the question before looking at the answer and then learning from your mistakes.

    Second, as far as time pressure is concerned, it certainly is difficult to finish the exam in the time allowed. However it is much much better to do something (however little) for every part of every question rather than leave some parts not attempting.
    Allocate your time for each part of each question – it is 1.8 minutes per mark, and so if there are 10 marks for one part then allow yourself 18 minutes and even if you have not finished move on to the next part. You can always go back and do more if you find you have time left over later.

    BPP and Kaplan are both approved publishers so both or good. I only have the BPP Revision Kit because I prefer it, but everyone has there own preferences 🙂
