I so hope I got an A. I will be quite disappointed if I get a B. I ended up doing all of the long questions because I used some of my extra time.

In one of the short answer questions, there was a question in relation to EU spending on farming, or something like that. Part (ii) said calculate the percentage spent on pastrol farming. I added the % spent on beef, and pastrol.
Is that right? I thought that the animals the beef came from would have to graze...? Oh dear, it's wrong, isn't it?!?:(
Help!

I think it was quite easy, but I think all of them are relatively easy. So, I don't know.

Damn. I couldn't figure out what that object was! I said that if it was a mountain, it's relief, if it is a weather front, it's cyclonic/frontal, and if it was a ray of sunshine it's convectional!
Will I still get any marks?!?:(

Slope A was even, i think.

Slope B and C were convex and concave, not sure which is which. I quessed.

the one that goes in like a 'cave' is the concave. the other one is convex

Yea, I ticked convectional, because somehow I convined myself that it was a front...But I did write all that down!
