My skool has given us Hienmann, Excel, Maquarie and Jacaranda...I find we only ever use Hienmann in class and when I "study" I use Excel and Hienmann....to me the others are useless

if everyone used heinemann... that means everyone will have the same exam mark- its called DIFFERENTIATION- your exam will look different and more refined --> better marks.

don't know which is the best, our class including our teacher can only be bothered using Heinemann.

I found the Cambridge very dry, boring and difficult to follow. Jacaranda is fairly good, especially for Automated Manufacturing.

IMO Jacaranda has the best exercises, but Heinemann has the best content (in terms of layout, clarity, depth). Although to be honest I only borrowed the others for revision, I really learnt off Heinemann only.

The Jacaranda is good and covers the Syllabus but Macquarie is excellent, keeps the points brief (since l only need it for revision occansionally) but very descriptive. If you want a full on explanation of these things either Jacaranda or Heinimann should do it.

Though Excel is a piece of shit

Heinemann is what we use, find it easy to understand...but i dont think that alone will help you cover the syllabus :rolleyes:
