Real benefits for students

► Pass those exams

To pass IB chemistry exams an understanding of structure is fundamental to the majority of the concepts that follow. This software takes you through each idea in turn, with clear explanations and worked examples drawn from past papers. At the end of each section you can test yourself using the programmable tests until you are certain that you have the concepts under control. Practice, practice, practice.

► Online help and support - a book that finally talks back to you!

A Chemistry teacher in-House... For the first time a book with real answers! If you have any problem with your studies you can contact the IB helpline using the MS Mesenger IB help service. A helping hand for those last minute doubts during study. * This offer is valid until the 30th October only, or until number become too large.

► Real benefits for teachers

Each section is a lesson in itself. Buying a site licence allows you to install the software on a class set of computers and help the students help themselves.

The tests can be programmed to give a set number of questions and after each test you can print out an analysis of the results.

Teachers could provide the software for their students to revise at home and then send the completed certificates in by email! The possibilities are endless.
