Re: Opinions on Bristol gs CBT.

The CD version is exactly the same as the book version apart from the CD version does not include any margin notes. In my opinion this is a serious omission, quite often the text reflects what the CAA want you to be taught, and the margin notes tell you what you need to know, either by filtering out the extraneous or by emphasising particular bits. I can think of one particular bit of Ops Procedures in which the text said something like "we have repeated the regs in full because that is how the questions may be worded, explanations are given in the margins". I was away at the time and so ended up doing something else until I could get to see my books again because it was mostly gibberish.
