Media Reviews
An excellent book, much more than just a revision guide. This should be essential reading for every student doing WJEC AS Media Studies. It offers a comprehensive breakdown of the requirements for MS1 and MS2 together with a wealth of useful and relevant examples. Head of Media Studies, Cardiff. Many students purchased the book this year and those that took the WJEC AS Media Studies examination in January came to tell me how much they thought the book helped them, giving them the confidence boost they needed. I highly recommend this text as a revision aid and hope that the A2 book comes out very soon! Head of Media and Film, Warrington
