** Geography 2012- Before/After

Schonie

There isn't one yet so I decided to create one...
What do you think will come up? Nervous?

I'm dreading it...I have been concentrating on english and chemistry(cause it's my worst one) but haven't looked at anything..no regional and no geoecology...so cramming now:(

Judging on that English paper... We are screwed.

Not completely...but to an extent. I mean. short questions

Mysteriouschic

I need to cram geography tonight, I'm learning 2 soil essays and 3 biomes I'm not taking any risks after that english prediction fail .
From half 7 all I will be doing is geography I still need to do maths but I'll do that maybe at like 10pm or something.

True...those are a saviour....plus we have the project done:pac:

Yeah...I'm learning all my biome essays and all the primary activities and maps...oh and quickly looking over Rhine and Geothermal energy as well...at least one comes up every year...hopefully this will be the case this year as well

At least I know my waterfall:D

Shoooooot...just realized there is the elective as well...oh crap...too much...I guess I might have to look over migration as well

Don't think I'll be doing maths today

Does soil always come up? Like can i just learn all the soil essays because i know a few of them already

Is a limestone pillar an example of a karst feature?

Would this be enough to get me through human:

• Migration(Donor and Receiver region)
• Sketch maps/Aerial maps
• Problems in a developing city
• Burgess model
• Historical settlement on an OS map
• Patterns of settlement

Taken from other thread. Any answer please?:D

Yes. I'm prettu sure it is anyway!

Looking Glass

Yep, pillars should do the trick! Doing the limestone pavement myself.

Isotonic

Ya limestone pillar will do. Clints and grikes probably easier

The High Crusade

My stomach sank seeing this thread, DREADING Geography.

piperroche

Here's my predictions:
Physical:
Waterfall
Human interaction along a river
Rocks, possibly sedimentary
Karst
Plate tectonics

Regional:
Sketch of european region
Prim.Sec.Tert European
Culture defining a region
EU
Tertiary in Ireland (hasnt been asked in a long time)

Elective:
Chpts 1-5
Central Place

Geoecology:
All, difficult to narrow it done

WHAT DO YE THINK??????

God Geography is such a pain in the ass Ah well hopefully I will get an A2 or an A1...I really need to

Lads I only know plant and animal adaaptations, if I was to learn 1 more what would it be?

Human interaction

Hayezer

With the biome? Thanks !

The Soil and climate too of the biome.

Also, Human interation for a completely diff 80marker. Should do the trick

I have so much to go over I hope I remember it my last years geography went awful because I crammed last minute except I studied differently then. I need to go over the other half of the elective.

So if characteristics of a biome came up I could slot in my plants and animals with the soil and climate? Smart idea, never thought of it :L :pac:

BellaVerita

Are the headings
"Acid rain and deforestation"
"Impact of acid rain on the vegetation and soil of the coniferous forest biome" and
"Impact of deforestation on tropical rainforests"
okay for a question on human influence on biomes??
They're from the Sue Honan book.. but humans aren't mentioned at all in the answer?

Iony94

If u know the climate than you know 2/3 of how plants and animals adapt to biome

Mysteriouschic

I'm going to learn for geoecology
Human impact on soils
Human impact on biomes
How animals and plants adapt to biomes.
Soil characteristics or processes :S .

My teacher got pregnant and left us with a sub for a year and a half, didn't get to finish physical at all I'm going to break down and cry.

CaoimheCweeva

Failed geography in the mocks .. haven't studied at all yet ... chances of failing?

Biomes BETTER come up, and Karst landscape (living in the Burren has it's upsides )

Whatsernamex33

Okay lads in all seriousness, how do you actually study for geography? :L done it last year and came out with a C1, somehow.. But I haven't an actual clue how to go about studying it and knowing it well :L

Go outside there pick up a bit of soil for geo ecology, a few rocks for physical, bit of river water and just throw it all on the page. A1 student
