Highly recommend getting this book if you're about to sit your APC soon. Don't fully rely on it as it does not have all questions that could be ask but it really makes a great foundation for your knowledge. A must have.

The book is basically just questions and answers. But its very well laid out and clearly. However its the price us quite steep for the overall information in the book

As an APC Candidate, I have found this revision guide by Dan Bolane immensely useful. When I started my APC journey is 2020, I was overwhelmed with the RICS pathways guidance and even more exasperated by so called helpful online APC blogs. That was until I came across this amazing revision guide by Dan Bolane. Thank you DAN for publishing it.It contains exactly what it says on the cover 1001 questions and answers that can support your APC knowledge.It clearly explains the different Levels of knowledge required, hot tips on how to pass the final assessment, and bare bones, no frills, easy to understand question and ideal answers on each of the competencies.Each Chapter begins with the RICS Competency, and follows through with questions based on keywords of the competency.I genuinely believe if every APC candidate purchased this book and further supplemented their knowledge with the RICS own guidance notes they will be much better for it.Good luck all.

When I signed up for my APC, I had only been in industry around a month (crazy!). I heard about this book from my counsellor, so I ordered it thinking it would give me some tips and tricks.I don’t think I would be anywhere near as confident without this book!! It splits down all the potential questions into competencies, which also gave me ideas as to what I could write for my submission.It’s been extremely useful for consolidating knowledge too; sometimes when I’m unsure if something, I look it up in this book and it gives me a succinct overview so I know for next time!Game changer, life saver and a must buy!!

I received the book on time. The book includes all important aspects and is the latest edition 2021. It has been a vital book for any APC candidate to start their revision. It is aimed mostly for land and property but also includes items for civil engineering related projects.A few recommendations for the author to include the followingHot Topics- construction strategy 2050- Net zero- project 13- Fire safety regulations and Grenfall- NEC4: clauses for net zero, alliance contract, facilities contracts- Carillion administration- RICS changes to the code of conduct- HS2- IR35- Fair Payment Charter- COVID 19 and Force Majeure- Inflation

The APC book has provided me with a great insight into the breadth of knowledge required for all RICS APC candidates, using a question and answer format it has helped me to develop my understanding of the assessors requirements for final assessment. I have used this book as the basis of all of my revision!

This is a great book for anyone studying for their APC, and is full of useful information on many of the competencies; however I was amazed with the amount spelling and grammar mistakes there where, hence I could only give this 3 stars. Honestly, did no one proof read this before it was published? It really lets down what is a great source of information.
