5.0 out of 5 stars Quite the contrary to what rocaveli says, May 14, 2005

This review is from: Chemistry for the Ib Diploma (Ib Study Guides) (Paperback)

I studied for the IB exam strictly from this book and received a 7. However, I can only comment on the Subject Specific Core, Option A, and Option D as those were the only sections our school had to know for the exam. I suppose the other options could have been done poorly, but if they were set up in the same way and to the same depth as SSC, A, and D then this book is the perfect tool to study for the IB exam.

3.0 out of 5 stars good start but....., November 9, 2003

This review is from: Chemistry for the Ib Diploma (Ib Study Guides) (Paperback)

this is a good start for an IB chem book but doesnt come close to being all you need...this is in stark contrast with the "Biology for the IB Diploma" which is magnificent..supposadely the Chemistry book by green and damji is better, though that has gotten lackluster reviews as well...

buy this book, but I would keep a couple of A-Level Chemistry books on the side to help as well. Allinall, we're on our own in IB Chemistry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Helpful, February 25, 2006

I always use this book to study before the tests in class. Its very condensed but does not skip over anything. It also has short and concise definitions which are easy to remember.
