    I started making them there and I think they're pretty helpful. Just get your book/revision book(Sue Honan) and summarise the 30 marker answers into bullet points. If you can, try and look out for the SRPs in the answer and just write them down-but I don't really know what a SRP is so I was just reading through the answer and picking out the important information.

    Dunno if that's much help, I didn't really know how to make them either so I just went off and tried it :P

    SRP - significant relevant point, these are the yolks that give you marks.
    2 marks each, can be drawings, figures.. anything of actual relevance.

    15 SRP's X 2 marks = 30 marks. :)


    I used flashcards for my geography LC 2 years ago.. found them helpful enough!
    Just nice to see everything there in front of you in bullet form as opposed to trailing through a whole answer..

    Good luck! )

    Ah yeah that is a good way of studying :D I have made out some for two answers already.I think I will mainly do it for regional and Human Geography for the moment as they are common sense but knowing the facts is another thing :P
    Thanks for that!
