are they really that good?

What are you ringing them up for, like general questions or really specific stuff.
For example are they much help if you don't understand a entire concept for biology or something like that?

hahaha just ring them ... if u think the conversations going nowhere... just hang up lol ! i'd love to see their expression as they realise :D:D!

michealn36-
the lady [the one that asks for your student number] said that she doesnt think they'll have time to listen to the whole essay, but said you could ask and see what they think

and they spend as much time as you need

i feel weird ringing up and asking questions that i think are stupid, but i just want to know.

Do they help you with past papers? I read somewhere that they have all the papers on record, including Catholic and Independent trials. Is this true?

Its a fairly good servie. I've used it for M.History and A.Eng and they (depending on who picks up your call) answer your question explicitly, not like some other doofs who go on about something else.

I thought the advice line ppl are quite helpful and today one made me feel confident when i pointed out something she didnt realise :):):)

But i usually find it hard to get them off the phone.. They just go on and on about the text.. Which is good!!!!!
