The HTA Guides are the best. In fact, at UNSW bookshop I've seen them being recommended as guides for some history courses. The Excel and Checkpoint ones are too superficial. Also, stay away from Bruce Dennett's one too. That textbook is way too superficial and quite expensive as well.

There's a study guide in the last pages of the HTA guide books that tells you how to prepare and study effectively for exams. And yes, it is a lot of content. It hurts your head to rote learn it all sometimes.

I'd say Expel and Checkpoint are terrible, and the best study from Modern comes from looking at many different sources and not using one in isolation.

Things I'd advise is looking at HTA resources and summaries for your topics from well performing past students, in addition to Historian's writings.
