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.

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.

I used this book two years ago, sorry about late review, but it is the reason why I passed IB Chemistry higher level. In the two weeks or so before the exam I went through the entire book, reading everything and doing the problems at the end of each chapter and it was amazing and very helpful. It organizes everyhting into groups and charts that make it much easier to review/memorize/learn. HL and SL material is also clearly marked. Helped me all throughout the year for reviews for tests also. A must have.

This book may be very concise, but it has basic outlines for all fundamental points one needs to know to get good marks on the papers. Use it to review. Highly recommended, especially for those who are doing Higher Level Chemistry.

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.

I took IB Higher Level in highschool and this book was a huge help. It concisely states exactly what you need to know (even the optional topics). If you could learn everything in this book, you'll have a 7 - no problem. The best part of this book is that it gives you exactly what you need to know without any fluff. A con associated with this methodology, however, is that nothing is really explained in detail.

As the title suggests, this is a "Study Guide." Everything you need to know is in the book and put out for you to learn. However, nothing is explained. So, the book isn't exactly very good at teaching you material, rather it supplements what you already know and helps you refresh and focus your studying.

This book not only helped pass the HL chem exam in high school, but it still serves me in College chemistry when I need to look back on something. This is a great book, and I highly recommend it to all IB students - who knows, you might even end up using it in college too!

I gave this item 5 stars for many reasons. I took Chemistry HL, and this study guide saved my life. I had to take Chemistry HL since the university I wanted to go to required me to take it. I never really liked chemistry, and this is especially true since I basically had to learn it on my own. This book made all of the concepts I learned in class make sense. And this is especially great if you're cramming for midterms/exams. This study guide trims all of the fat and the stuff you won't see on the exams (for the most part). I used this book for the whole IB diploma program, so it covers everything (including options).

I needed to buy this for my IB Chem class, but it was so useful that I kept it for my college chem class as well. It's such an easy book to learn and has so many relevant topics. It's a must have for anyone interested in chem.
