I did groynes and is it only me or were they less graphs on the paper than normal? What happened with English? :frown:

I have not done any past papers for this exam as I was focusing on the first paper for ages. There was like one graph for each topic for me though; english didn't go very well. Thought question 4 and 3 were so hard. :frown:

Oh no :frown: I thought they were good and English actually went good for me but i'll probably be crying tomorrow after maths. Did you find it hard because you found source 3 awkward? It's always something about someone drowning in the sea I swear :tongue:

Yeah I have maths tomorrow. Yeah that's why I struggled on question 4. Yeah, I swear they found the most boring, pointless stories and just put it into our exams. They are so boring. :smile:

To be honest when I did that question I didnt really care to much about which one I was arguing for because you could have done an argument for either.

Yeah It was quite annoying really because I already knew about that slide as im a big fan of him and I wanted to write more than the article. I know that feeling, had it after that English exam. So good!. :smile:

Transboundary water issue, i was fairly sure that was going to come up and it did so i knew what to do for it, not sure how well i did but hopefully did great. What about you?
throughout the whole thing i thought it'd be a dreaded MNC case study as the whole paper was based on that. thank god it wasn't because the MNC was the only one i didnt learn

True, but the green belt one had a good few advantages that I found I developed well so I decided to change things up a little and go with the green belt
Im sure you did good. :smile:
I did spec A and did weather climate, retail and urban change and coasts. Weather n climate was tough ( high pressure low pressure, weather hazards ) other 2 I thought were alright not as I hoped though 🙁
