It's not enough to know your stuff in a maths exam: to get the best grade you possibly can, you need to have good exam technique.
You know that, of course. Your teachers have mentioned it over and over -- but they probably haven't explained what exam technique actually is.
In this book, Colin (author of AS- and A-Level Maths For Dummies and a host of other revision books) puts that right. From last-minute revision, through keeping yourself calm in the exam, to squeezing every last mark out of the paper, to using the last few minutes effectively, Exam Technique helps you find marks you'd otherwise have missed -- marks that could mean you make your target grade.
"Great read! Really witty and informative which makes it easy to read. Good mix of stating the obvious-but-often-overlooked behaviours combined with insider tips on exam strategy and comforting anti-panic techniques. I'd recommend this book to all of my students."
