P2 - Multi-choice booklets

I've just finished updating our P2 Multi-choice booklets for the 2006 exams, ready for release next month, and this has prompted a few questions:

1. After each answer, we give a reference, which includes chapter, section and page numbers. These need to be updated each year and I was wondering whether anyone has found this reference useful (or expects to). If so, do we really need chapter, section AND page numbers? (I'm happy to keep updating them if they're useful - I'm just not looking for extra work for the sake of it!)

2. Any suggestions for improvements to either these booklets or the on-line version?

3. I've also just finished updating Smart Revise for SA2. How would you compare the two products - is anyone intending to use both?

Please answer any of these questions you wish to.

In my view:

1. I found either the chapter and section OR page number were sufficient to steer me in the right direction.

2. One of the things I found that helped with the booklets was to jumble up the questions. At the moment, the P2 questions tend to follow the structure of the notes (i.e. basic product-type questions at the front, analysis of surplus at the back). This sometimes means that questions are "easily" answered because the preceeding questions have lead you down the right thought process. In the end, I pulled the pages out of the spiral bindings to jumble them up, and found it much more useful as the questions leapt between topics (as they do in the real exam) keeping me awake. I'm not sure whether the online version already gives this option, or whether anyone else found this helped?
