Which is better? Cambridge or Terry Lee for 4u

I find Cambridge questions extremely broad and hard. Add to that, they're not exam style questions either. Are they worth it as much as past papers would be?

Whoops. I just realised that this was the 4U section.

For MX2, Cambridge is really mediocre. The questions are either too boring or just ridiculous. The 4U Cambridge questions definitely do not reflect the scope of the exam. It may be worth mentioning that they were going to publish a new edition (that looks much more like the 2U and 3U versions), but it never got through.

All I really know about Terry Lee's textbook is that it's directed more towards selective schools. I haven't reviewed the textbook properly yet to offer up a more useful analysis of it.

However, as always, you can never get better than past papers.
