I'm really worried about timing! That and forgetting SRPs are such a big worry for me. Or being forced into a q where I have to draw a map.

I'm kind of worried I gotta admit. Usually I've poor time management when it comes to Geography essays. The information is easy enough I think but the whole SRP thing bugs the hell out of me. Often it can be difficult to know what certain points are relevant and which aren't,

what the hell is a biome????

Can anyone explain to me how to recognise a waterfall on an Ordnance Survey map?

I wrote a class answer on the formation of a waterfall in my mocks but got 0 marks 'cause I gave the wrong grid reference for it on the map Don't want that to happen again if the question comes up

Guys I don't want you to risk but Im 90% sure that on Geoecology question there will be one of these Human Influence on Biomes, Human Influence on soils or The tropical rainforest Biome... !!! Good Luck to everyone tomorrow

it's part of the geoecology option question so you probably don't do that option if you've never heard of it

For regional do you have to know GDA,BMW,Paris Basin,Mezzigiorno and on continent? Or just say BMW Mezzigiorno and continent?

You could get away with learning just BMW, Mezzogiorno and continent.. But sometimes they do ask to contrast two regions, get me? Like agriculture in GDA and BMW... Its possible to do just them though, pretty much what I'm doing (:

I'd look over them all, simply for insurance.

The only thing I'm certain is that I'll be pulling an all night geography cramming session :L

I actually dont know what BMW is. No clue. How come I haven't come across it?

In other news done rocks, rivers, all regional and 4 essays this evening and feeling confidant.

I can't draw maps. :pac:

I can see them perfectly in my head but when I try to draw them they come out as blobs that look nothing like the countries. :rolleyes:

And economic will probably bump up my grade. :P drawing maps though, just can't do it for the life of me. Once my teacher actually held up my map of Ireland as an example of how to not draw a map.

okay could someone explain to me the map grid references. E before N, but which ones are the up lines and which ones are the down lines?

E goes across - Eastings, meaning east to west
N goes down - Northings, north to south.

My ireland maps were so good in 5th year they gradually got worse now the maps I draw look awful.
You know that eu question on regional I didn't study that would I be safe leaving that out?

Whatsernamex33

I think I'm genuinely going to fail geography which is weird since I did okay first time..

Fergus_

I just want to clarify, is it ok to write in bullet points for all sections of the paper?

Incompetent

If a question states to explain formation of any landform in karst region, can I pick underground? Like a pillar? Or must it be surface, if it doesn't state?
