I was hoping that the author of the CMP or a tutor could let me know if the notes cover everything relevant in the two textbooks and the separate core reading. I'm reading the books too, but don't want to have to check that everything is mentioned in the notes. I.e if I read the books, will the notes be sufficient to remind me what I need to cover? Also, are the QA bank questions exam standard? For CT8 I found the QA bank was not as difficult as the exam, which was annoying. Thanks!
In my opinion just knowing the notes isn't sufficient as its no guarantee of being able to answer the questions in the exam. You really need to have a thorough understanding of all the material so that you can react quickly to the tough questions they throw at you on the day. I'd say reading the textbooks is a good way of developing this understanding. Past exam questions help but every exam will test topics in an unfamiliar way!!
