I have just taken a GCSE in Spanish as an adult learner.
I thought this book was really, really useful.
It doesn't have lots of vocab but covers the basics you need.
The grammar is extremely well explained and was easy to follow.
One of the best things in the book is the humour used throughout which definitely made revising alot more fun.

This is probably the best GCSE revision guide available - it is compact enough to be used as a revision aid, yet it is sufficiently comprehensive to enable students to use it throughout the course and to revise the higher level vocab and phrases needed to get the top grades. There is excellent and extensive use of underlining and highlighting of key points throughout and at the end of each revision section there is also a very useful and thorough test page to see if you are ready to move on to the next.
My only quibble, and it's not a small one, is that the lists of vocabulary are joined too closely together i.e not alligned and spaced out as should be standard in these revision guides. It's therefore difficult to hide the word in one language whilst testing yourself for its equivalent, and that's annoying. But it's really just about the only thing that stops this otherwise perfect guide from getting my 5 stars.

Excellent content, as always from this publisher, for 2010, but don't buy it for GCSE 2011, as it relates to the current syllabus, not the new one.

I'll be doing parts of my Spanish GCSE in just over 2 weeks and I purchased this revision guide a few months back. It was definitely worth the price; it gives you absolutely everything you need to know in order to achieve the higher grades and the layout of the book is perfect. It has a great grammar section in order to master the tricky Spanish tenses and the CD has been extremely helpful.
I recommend this to anyone who is currently doing GCSE Spanish or will be doing so soon.

This revision guide is assured to improve your grades. It's incredibly easy to use and its humorous pictures and cartoons also make revising Spanish fun and easy. I enjoy Spanish very much, but I am not very good at it. I got this book and it has improved my Spanish greatly. I love all the books in this series. In fact, CGP are the only revision guide publishers I would even consider, because they are informative but funny, unlike most revision books, which have loads and loads of text, but no pictures. This is because they only give you the main points you need to know, which means that they have more space for their funny drawings. The books are very good for last-minute revision.. This is the best revision guide for those who want an A* to a B for GCSE Spanish.

I ordered this item as I am currently undertaking a beginners course in Spanish. It was recommended to me by the Spanish teacher. Although this book is a few years old, the information contained within is still very relevant as languages don't change and any future editions are really only cosmetic changes to the look of the book. Given that I paid a penny for the book, plus postage of a couple of quid, it's probably one of the bargains of the century. Especially given that the condition was excellent. Actually it was better than the "Very good" condition that it was described as. It has all the useful stuff in an easy to read and understand way. Although it's aimed at the GCSE student, there is no hint of the book being aimed at any particular age bracket. If you can get hold of one of one of these books and you are learning Spanish or intend to, I'd say don't hesitate. Recommended.

This book was excellent and in very good condition. I am a teacher of French and German and, having learnt Spanish in the past, have been asked to teach it next year. This is a revision for me on the simple grammar required for GCSE. I know the type of book as I have used the French and German versions often.
