  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,323 ✭✭✭Cruel Sun


    Awwwww ****, what does early settlement mean, I wrote about stuff that happened in Brazil in the 50/60's and 70/80's, will that be alright. I also mentioned the Normans in the 1100's, will I get marks for Brazil or is that too recent.

    That was weird I had to answer on levees twice . I had the river rhine which was about levees too. I hope I remembered it well. I nearly freaked out I thought it only said coastal and mass movement and I 'd just finished the levees.

    Yeah I know but there we're a few buildings beside where it said school but I guess it's in and around the same place anyways :rolleyes:

    and the other name 2 countries that aren't in the EU? I said Finland and The Netherlands
    what did yous put?


  • Registered Users Posts: 103 ✭✭AllyMcFearless


    Was an alright paper, found the short questions to require much more effort than usual :P
    Mainly winged it, geography is one of the subjects I don't struggle with oddly. B2 in the mocks for doing nothing :S

    Regional and physical questions were beautiful, loved the one of the EU crisis too. Geoecology was alright, I wanted flora/fauna/soil adaptations to come up so I waffled lots. But hopefully did ok :)

    It said the functions though it didn't say historic settlements so I assumed it was just normal settlements :S.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18 Limschoolboy


    Guys, I wouldn't worry too much about question 18!
    If you did one biome you wouldnt loose an abundance of marks, in fact with the outrage u prob wont loose much..

    If you mentioned two areas where the biome is found or different examples they prob be generous! dont worry!:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 34 Fiona1993


    Does it matter if you don't number your questions???????


  • Registered Users Posts: 44 TMCGY

    Yea! haha what did the question say again i cant even remember now! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,207 ✭✭✭Ally7


    For anyone panicking about the geoecology question where it said biomes and you weren't sure if you had to do more than one, there was a similar enough question in 2009 "Assess how biomes have been altered by human activity". In the marking scheme it said "examination can refer to one or more biomes" so you're more than likely ok if you only wrote about one :)

    Oh was it explain the distribution??

    Did anyone else do the option question on climate change? I was delighted when I seen it. However, the overall paper was horrible . The questions were very specific :-( . Also what would have been a good answer for the question on sedimentary rocks and then something about how they can form metamorphic rocks??? Had my brain twisted :-(
