    Excel HSC Business Studies in coming out end of January. I think one good textbook and a study guide would be enough for the subject. BS in Action is a good textbook imo.

    Textbooks used

    I use Business Studies in Action HSC at school, and Cambridge as an secondary. I find that BS in Action is more direct and to the point, and Cambridge is indirect, usually going around the point to describe the stuff. How do you guys find Business Focus? Your Opinions? :)
