    AQA Geography Unit 4B - 19th June 2012 (Pre-release: Nepal)
    Haven't yet got a copy of the pre-release material, but apparently it's on 'Investigating Nepal' according to this site:

    http://zigzageducation.co.uk/synopse....asp?link=zzbe

    Anyone willing to put up a copy/share some ideas about this exam?

    [Edit: ZigZag answers on Page 4]

    I got it this morning, the information in the booklet is regarding:
    - an intro to the geography of the Himalayas
    - tourism and the fragile environment of Nepal
    - household energy issues in Nepal
    - national energy issues in Nepal
    - the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC)
    - further research (aqa.org.uk/geo4b/june2012/images) and (http://practicalaction.org)

    (hope I'm allowed to actually post this.. )

    You are.

    If you could scan it in or something that would be absolutely fantastic

    May have to settle for the "Or Something" - my scanner just doesn't want to work. I've taken some (rather awful) photos of the pages until someone can scan and upload you a better copy . Page numbers at the top.
    Attachment 139504 Attachment 139505 Attachment 139506 Attachment 139507 Attachment 139508 Attachment 139510 Attachment 139511 Attachment 139512 Attachment 139513
    (didn't post the contents page / front page - only allowed 10 attachments per post and the contents page I copied out in my last post )


    thanks sooo much, I wasn't going to get this until after easter XD

    I'm not sure at the moment - the topic sounds interesting, but there is loads of wordy information in the booklet, and theres a few pages on energy, which we didn't do at AS, so I might go through that module in the AS textbook.

    Still not entirely sure what went wrong in January...

    Wow that came out early, I'm sure when I did it in Jan we only had a month or so. Anyway, yeah looks quite interesting, certainly different from Poole! I've got a PDF version if anyone wants it

    Also, I wonder if anyone's gonna be able to get their hands on the prised ZigZag teacher booklet, the one linked by the OP on the first post. Looks so useful, not sure it's worth £50 though . Schools and colleges buy it however so maybe someone could sneak it out of there?

    If I could have a copy that'd be great
    Hopefully much better than Poole; that was so dull!
    As for the ZigZag, I think our teacher is getting it... I'll upload it if we do!

    I'll message the link to you. Does anyone know if it'd be a problem putting the link up publicly?

    Unfortunately I don't think anyone's gonna have the ZigZag booklet guys, because I think it comes only in paper format (I think) so nobody's gonna scan in 50+ pages of a booklet they bought themselves for £50.
