    I think Revise Wise are much better than Less Stress More Sucess. I have Business HL and I think it is really good and the History one is very good aswell.

    I loved the rapid revision chemistry one. I used the less stress one as well in combination. For maths use the exam papers and get a solution book (or download the answers).

    The less stress ones aren't very good for anything but maths and geography. Rapid revision one is good for business. Haven't tried the maths one might get it this year. I've heard the less stress one isn't so bad for economics.

    rapid revision is good for biology. it has all the necessary detail while also being very condensed, and the diagrams are very easy to understand.

    the rapid revision books for both physics and chemistry are brilliant and less stress for maths are good too.

    The new Rapid Revision book for Ordinary Level Maths is absolutely brilliant. My teacher just got some the other day.
