[Ben Pace · Rating 2 out of 5]

Useful and concise summary of information necessary for those looking to take the BMO1 in Britain.

Perhaps not the greatest overview of theory, but that's not what you buy it for. The useful bit is the set of solutions to all BMO1 questions of recent years, which aren't available online.
