    I was a bit confused at first with this one as i assumed cattle was an input. Then I noticed it specifically said 'calves' which is an output (i think). I got those other answers aswell.

    Could slurry not be considered an output? It was making silage not just silage so sounded like a process, but could of been a tillage farm!

    Okay, I'm completely and utterly shocked. Was it just me who found Geography to be a ridiculously easy exam? I mean, one of the questions was "What is this picture about?" and underneath the question there was a picture of a polar bear and a penguin on an ice berg with 4 answers beneath, one being 'Global warming'. I was actually laughing to myself during the exam.

    found it pretty easy! I did Q1,Q4,Q5. Question 4 was class knew my cirque and location of industry off by heart so was delighted that came up. Some of the short questions were kinda tough though!

    My teacher has been telling us since forever to do that question (ordnance survery) but I think the theory is easier so I did Q1,Q2 and Q4 as they required least effort :)

    I managed to get every question done with a few minutes spare to sort out my pages. Loved Q5, was an absolute beauty. Doing the sketch of the ordnance survey using a 1:50 scale is an easy 10 marker :)

    Well four was the geomix so you only actually have to do 3 parts of it.

    I said gravity but I sorta guessed that one.. I kinda thought they are both correct but it depends on what they mark it as I guess :/

    Pretty sure 4 is 1, 4 and 5.
    7 is scree, mechanical and gravity.
    16 is True, False, False?

    Correct me if I'm wrong. :)

    I said (4) 1,2,3 (7) I actually don't know, it was a strange question. It has never come up under that name before on a paper. And (16) I said True, True, False :) Im not strong at geo so it was all bsed to be honest but more than likely that's what half of Ireland did today xD

    A couple terms used in the short questions (one was denudation I think) threw me off a little bit but after I read the questions it was all okay aha :D

    I think I might have left out the question about the problems with oil and gas exploitation. Ughhh I guess I'll never know . I can't remember answering it :confused: . I guess I'll never know :p

    I think I finished off a booklet page and thought I was done the question and then I moved on to doing weathering :(

    Still though I'm pretty sure I didn't lose more than 22 marks overall .....hopefully not :pac:

    I wrote a full page about that stupid pyramid A and B question (i) :p

    Really?
    I presumed each one was only worth 2 marks and then life expectancy was 4 marks/each
