    Hi

    You do not really need thorough reading of the text. Our lectures (together with the course notes that go with them) contain more than enough to pass the exam well. I would use the text more as a reference book to use for any areas which you are finding tricky.

    What you do need is lots of practice and for this you must use a Revision/Exam Kit from one of the approved publishers. They contain lots of exam-standard questions to practice on, and practice is vital.

    For MCQ’s in particular – there are plenty of MCQ’s in the Revision Kits, but also we have a test online. The test selects questions at random from a bank of questions, so every time you attempt the test you are likely to see different questions. It is best to use the tests nearer to the exam when you have already studied the topics and practiced questions – the tests on here are useful because they force you to attempt them under time pressure.
