If you are preparing for 'O' level Physics then this tape is for you.

The basis of the package is a set of programs and revision notes which try to cover the syllabus of most examination boards. It is up to you to check that it does, though!

The cassette starts with a program of hints and tips for organising revision schedules. all the usual stuff about being methodical, but no less useful because you've heard it before. The programs all involve multiple choice questions and the idea is to get 100 points from the tests.

The scoring is on an exponential basis (wrong answers cause you to get fewer points) so that you really have to work hard to get your 100.

This program cannot make you pass exams but, if used wisely, it could help you greatly. Two small criticisms are that it can ask the same question twice in one test, offering the same answer in two ways, e.g. 'rise in temperature' and 'temperature rise' but only one is correct!
