Hello

I need good books from which I can study Chemistry and Physics for o level. I was thinking about getting "Complete Chemistry for IGCSE by RoseMarie Gallagher and Paul Ingram" and "Complete Physics for IGCSE by Stephen Pople".
Please tell me if these books are good enough or suggest other books for these subjects.

Thank you. :good:

P.S: I am a private candidate.

Most schools including mine use the following books:
Chemistry Matters by Tan Yin Toon & Cheen Ling Kwong (for Molar Calculations we use Chemistry Calculations JA Hunt & A Sykes )
Physics Matters by Charles Chew & Chow Siew Foong

Dont use these books as they are for IGCSE.... O levels is different system than IGCSE so the syllabus might differ a bit..
For further help refer to this site plz
Good Luck :good:
