What textbook?

I never used the Maquarie guide however, its only a summary style study guide. The textbook shouldn't be that hard. But if you really do understand it from the macquarue guide you should then be able to apply that knowledge to the textbook.
So the warning is that summary textbooks, even the main textbook often lack the depth required by the syllabus.

Daiz has the same no. of letters as days. Why didn't you just spell it as days?
Also, use a spell-checker please.

Seeing as you're doing some study, your marks won't be worse than school, otherwise something is horrendously wrong. I reckon that the Macquarie guide would be okay (would, 'cuz I haven't got it, let alone used it).

At the moment, I'm worried about getting raped in exams, seeing as I have yet to do enough practice. I also need more papers, more, more!

Good luck, though.

um what?

It would be better to learn from your "school textbook" because your teacher might set exam questions based on what you have learnt from class and from the school textbook.
