I purchased these books at a bookstore last month to prepare for the exam. Both were purchased this year. The orange textbook was purchased just before the exam, and it's in good condition. (I was studying mainly with the pink official textbook, but when I saw this orange textbook at the bookstore, the practice questions seemed difficult and I couldn't solve them (^_^;), so I panicked and bought it.) Neither book has any writing in it. The pink textbook has some marks on the bottom where a child scribbled with a ballpoint pen (tears). Please be sure to check the images. However, the contents are intact, so there's no problem with studying; please rest assured. For those who want to study using the textbooks from each publisher, or those who want to challenge a new qualification, please consider these. Both come with red sheets to hide the text. The orange textbook also has a thin separate volume, which is useful for review when traveling, etc. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to imperfections. Thank you for your understanding.
