How to use this site for revision:
  1. Do the diagnostic test for one part of the main course
  2. Revision the sections you got wrong
  3. Test yourself on the Acid Tests
  4. Re-revise sections as appropriate
  5. Repeat this process for rest of the main course
Note: Questions numbers in the diagnostic tests correspond to the numbers in the first column of each table. So Question 1 on the Main Number & Algebra Diagnostic Test corresponds to iNA1.
