In summary, the person is looking for a suitable A level Math software to help them fill in any gaps in their weak areas. They are self-studying for the University of Cambridge Advance Level exams, with syllabus codes 9709 for A level Math and 9231 for A level Further Math. They are looking for a comprehensive software that can act as a personal tutor and cover all topics in the exams.

I am studying for the university of Cambridge Advance Level (GCE A Levels)

The syllabus code is 9709 for A level Math and 9231 for A level Futher Math.

I am looking for a software that can act as my personal tutor- something that can help me understand all the topics covered by 9709 and 9231 so I can have the confidence to attempt the exams. Remember I am selfstudying- so I would like to have a software as through as possible.

I was searching amazon.com and I saw a whole bunch of them- but their reviews weren't encouraging. Some people said that the graphics and navigation was poor, others said that their syubject content was poor.

I am confused and desperate- whose product to purchase, which one will be the cheapest, which one will take all the complex topics and break it down simply so that not only I can understand and master all the mathematical subjects covered by these exams, I will be able to get a Grade A too?
