Do I get lifetime access?
Yes. It is a one-time payment, not a subscription. Once you buy the deck you keep access permanently on any device you sign in on.

How is this different from a textbook?
Every bold word is an exact mark-scheme key word that earns a mark, and the examiner traps flag the mistakes that lose them. It is written to be revised, not read.
