gcse books help please

Options
Hi im taking my gcse's this year and need to buy many revision books, does anyone know where i can get them at fairly good price, ive checked at my local whsmiths but they dont have any offers on any gcse stuff. Will it be cheaper to get it off the internet? where? do i need any codes?

i need a revision book for history, geography, religious studies, english lang & lit, including the book, An inspecter calls and its revision book and finally triple science. ive already done my math exam so i dont need that (RESULTS ON 19TH JAN!!) wish me luk:D

Is amazon the best bet for this kind of thing?

Thank you:p

    search for books in kelkoo price compare.

    Your school will most likely be selling revision guides nice and cheap in the coming weeks. And at least if you buy it from school then you know it is certainly covers your exam board.

    I always found the cgp books of the most use but i also made a point of going to my teacher and getting copies of as many past papers as poss (u can get them online too now). By doing the questions and seeing the marking scheme really helped.

    I often buy a lot of uni books from ebay - maybe thats worth a look?

    Good luck!

    Always worth looking on ebay, they seem to have plenty if you know what you are looking for.

    Best of luck! x

    Have a look on the used and new books on Amazon.co.uk.

    Some of them sell for pennies but postage can be about £2 each.

    You could also have a look in some of the charity shops.

    or go to your local libary and keep renewing it, also if you hand it in late its free (thats if you are under 16) so you dont have to worry in theory about renewing them
