what maths textbook is best for gcse edexcel maths?

[bitter rune]

The mains I saw were CGP and Pearson but not sure what type of each and which one or both

[remote juniper]

Q: why do you need a textbook?

Also this should be in #maths-discussion afaik

[bitter rune]

for revision what

[remote juniper]

Honestly you are better of using corbettmaths or smth. Use those resources for revision

and you can get exam questions from maths genie

just go through past papers and see which topics you struggle with -> watch a video -> do exam questions for that topic

[bitter rune]

yeah but isnt it good to look through like topics though

also @remote juniper can you tell me, for like maths tests what should I use to revise?

[remote juniper]

me personally, I don't revise for tests in particular

[remote juniper]

I just do this and make sure I'm on top of every topic

[bitter rune]

yea but thats just cuz ur smart lmao im not that smart

[remote juniper]

and still get 95-100%

[bitter rune]

my teacher doesnt give my past tests back so i cant to do that

[remote juniper]

well your teacher should do that, ask her.

and I am not talking about tests given by teacher, I print past papers myself and do those

checking them is farely easy if you get maths genie answered past papers

[bitter rune]

yea but my teacher collects everyones test and has them all also but the past papers wont be exactly whats on the test

[remote juniper]

"but the past papers wont be exactly whats on the test" - You can't expect maths questions to be exactly the same from what you've practiced???

You need to learn how to solve the questions, not learn the answers to the questions

[bitter rune]

yea but i wont know what type of questions I have to even revise and what to use

[remote juniper]

Well the topics should be taught to you in school, and otherwise just watch a corbett maths video and get on with some practice exam questions on his website

[bitter rune]

wtf is corbett maths videos

[remote juniper]

Waste of money; Sometimes overcomplicate things; Better ways to revise

[bitter rune]

[remote juniper]

ya then they're good

You don’t need a textbook at gcse

[molten fjord]

Just watch vids and do practice papers

[molten fjord]

I scored 228/240 with 78/80 on p3

Heres the method

[halcyon bough]

you can use websites don’t be like those people who spend all their money on textbooks they don’t need

BBC home learning, Physics and Maths tutor and you can find past papers for revision

if you want one really bad check your local library or mainly use online and free resources
