Thank you for the advise, Bookshop.Bookshop:
The differences in the yearly TYS are:
1) The answer key provided. In terms of the answers provided, SAP seems to have come a long way. The answer keys used to be littered with errors here and there. But they have improved signficantly, and now generally provide answers that are more trusted than the other publishers.
2) Pricing. Popular bookshops are offering higher discounts for EPH, as it's their in-house brand.
3) Size of the book. Shinglee and EPH books are of A4 sizes, which is the O-Level standard. Also, their pages have been specially designed so that they can be torn out from the book for separate yearly revision.
You have to decide which of the above factors is the most important.
[quote=\"hopefulparent\"]I am thinking of buying the yearly TYS for my boy. He is taking the O-levels in a few months' time.
Does anyone have any experience as to which TYS is preferable? I saw EPH, SAP, Shinglee and some other brands at Popular. Are they all the same?
Thank you.
Do you have any recommendations for Physics and Chemistry revision books, where there are notes and formulas. Do you think they will be useful for last minute revision?[/quote]
