The Cambridge General Mathematics Study Guide is designed to assist students to conduct a thorough topic-by-topic review of concepts and techniques from both the Preliminary and HSC Mathematics courses. It encourages students to apply their knowledge and skills to solve a variety of problems. Each chapter is devoted to a single topic area and comprises: a summary of the topic content arranged under subheadings; worked examples which illustrate the application of this content to problem solving and the appropriate setting out of mathematical working; a set of graded exercises for students to test their understanding and practise their skills, with worked solutions provided; a more substantial set of graded further exercises for consolidation, with outline solutions provided. Finally, a set of two Practice papers is included. Each of the papers follows the format of the HSC examination paper for Mathematics.
