DD1 will be choosing her subjects next year and it's a toss between Computer Science and Business Studies so I thought it would be a good idea to buy the revision guides books for her to have a browse over the summer which might help her make a decision.
She likes the GCP revision books but I'm not having much luck with the well known auction site, the books are either old [different specs] or the wrong exam board.
Computer Science is AQA but I'm only finding OCR books and Business Studies is OCR and I'm only finding AQA books. Is there much difference between the two? Obvs I will buy the up to date books for the right exam board once she's made a decision but at the moment she only needs a 'taste' of the subjects and time to ponder. Would the not so up to date/wrong exam board books be a waste of time or could they be useful to get an idea what either GCSE is all about?
For context: the school usually has enough interest to run both subjects every year and DD1 is able and interested. On the other hand, I think it would really be too much to do both GCSE's on top of everything else.
TIA
