5* Vine review
This is a very useful and extremely clear revision guide
I got it for a friend's son, who is studying for the AQA Geography A-level.
He likes how it is a colourful guide that breaks topics out into different boxes, saying this works well with this visual memory. In subsequent tests at school, he has been able to recall information effectively by seeing the page and graphics in his head.
