    Yep I did. What I did was I wrote out every essay from Sue Honan's 'Exam Skills' and anything that waa missing that was in Plant and People I put it in. Most of my essays accumulated to 3-4 pages but the beach one was the shortest at 2 and a bit. I did it in the mock and including the diagram it cane to 30/30 :-)

    Wow.... thats talent.

    Fair dues, I wish I had the motivation to learn off 100 essays
    Wait a second.... Did you write 2-3 pages for a 30 mark question??? How did u manage that in 2:50 mins??

    Easily with practice! I've done the LC once before though, I learned from silly mistakes from last year..

    hey guys, for question 12 in patterns and processes in the human environment, on Q.B, the population distribution question, I talked about settlement patterns like nucleated, dispersed and linear...etc.. I'm not sure If I was supposed to write about settlement patterns? Will I get marks?

    Wow you all did extremely well. I got 3 pages of absolute waffle for my 80 mark question and like 1-1.5m page for each of my 30m questions. In fact for 2 of them I only wrote half a page and one of them I didn't even do.

    Ugh, I really am dreading the result of this exam.

    Same... I only did 1-1.5 pages for each question, also I asked a few people out of my year and they did 1 page for lyk each 30 marker. So I presume that's the average. :-)

    generally 15srps is a page and a half, obviously depends on the size of your writing.

    Yeah it does! Limestone changes to marble because of dynamic metamorphism!

    actually regional metamorphism, heat and pressure applied over a large area?? folding where sudduction takes place... 200 degress and 300 megapascals .... dynamic is where slate goes to shist

    I just wrote hydroloysis turns limestone to A metamorphic rock... Seemed to be a way to get around the question without actually knowing the process by which it gets turned into it.

    I picked here take on it considering she's the most widelyspread known geog publisher, however james campbell says limestone is subjected to thermal meta......

    so thermal would get marks too..

    however dynamic wont - because heat is needed to rid the fossils in marble!!

    simple answer could have been "metamorphism"
    like apply junior cert knowledge of how rocks change to metamorphic
