Based closely on So you really want to learn History Books One and Two, this excellent guide shows you exactly what you need to know, offers strategies for getting to know it and explains exactly how to handle your knowledge. Excellent summaries, 'test yourself' questions and practice essays make this a real 'learning-through-doing tool', ideal for teachers, tutors, parents and pupils alike. With suggested answers to aid self-testing, it is the perfect companion to independent revising. Packed with sensible advice on revision and exam techniques, this book is the long-awaited 'must-have' for those chasing the top history grades. Get it, use it, get there!' Gavin Hannah, Summer Fields School 'Ed Adams has come up trumps with a fantastic Revision Guide for the first two Common Entrance Papers: Medieval Realms and The Making of the United Kingdom. The Revision Guide starts with top tips for pupils' revision and exam technique, and all the way through there are practice essay titles, evidence question reminders and 'test yourself' factual exercises. There are 'bitesize' sections of text and easy-to-use bullet points throughout - it should make revising Common Entrance History both fun and accessible. Exam revision is hard enough as it is, but this book should definitely help pupils of all abilities as they tackle Common Entrance.' Niall Murphy, Radley College
