Book SynopsisStraight A Student, Cambridge grad, experienced teacher and former A-Level examiner Lucy Parsons is on a mission to help 15-18 year olds achieve their academic dreams. Through her book The Ten Step Guide to Acing Every Exam You Ever Take Lucy shows you a simple system that she developed for her own use and perfected in her classroom that really does get you the best grades every time. Lucy is passionate about helping young people achieve their ambition of getting into elite universities and reaping the life-long benefits that this extraoridnary education will give them.Trade ReviewWhatever level of education you are in, whatever subjects you are studying, if you follow Lucy's steps and implement her methods it will totally alter your way of thinking and attitude towards work, but not least your grades and academic success. My grades are proof; I got a sheet of paper last August telling me I had achieved 10 A*s and 2 As in my GCSEs. --Laura-Jane Baxter, A Level student Before I read The Ten Step Guide to Acing Every Exam You Ever Take I had virtually no idea how to revise or study for myself given that I was mostly spoon-fed material at GCSE and did virtually no revision for my GCSE exams. The book pointed out how vital organisation is to success, and as a result inspired me to purchase organisation materials, such as calendars and planners, which I use frequently and have seen results with. It also showed me many ways I could revise and study successfully, most of which I had never thought of before. It also helped me prepare for A-level as it mentioned making sure to work from day 1. Doing so has allowed me to see how much better and faster I understand things, rather than learning later from botched notes during revision time. My favourite thing was the 40 revision methods, as they helped me figure out how I could go about independent study and revision. Thank you for the help you are providing to students. I know that I in particular would be lost without the organisation tips and revision tips provided in your book. --Paige, A Level Student Before I read The Ten Step Guide to Acing Every Exam You Ever Take I was finding it difficult to know where to start. It gave me ideas of new ways to study rather than just sitting down and reading from a textbook. It helped me to plan out my revision and life using the revision timetables and the sample copy. It helped me to manage what I need to improve on (I found the strengths and weaknesses table very useful!). My favourite thing would be the different ideas and resources. --Molly, GCSE student
