DD has her mock in a couple of weeks (not foundation paper) and wanted her to do some extra work either on- line or a revision guide - can any parents or teachers out there advise please, which one/s?

Thanks!

The CGP one is as good as any and the cheapest! Does her school sell them as many do and they are even cheaper then. Don't bother with the fact book just the book of questions or the practice exam papers.
Online - mymaths, bbc bitesize, mathsrevision.net
I am sure her teacher has lots of suggestions if she asks - we always had a list of sites on the intranet.

Make sure the revision guide matches the syllabus and the scheme of work for the exam she's doing: AQA and Excel have some significant differences, I believe.

Might be worth finding out if her school subscribes to Mathletics or conquermaths - then you don't need to pay for them!! Conquermaths is specifically geared up to GCSE.
