Re: Edexcel Geography DME;The OlympicsThey share the houses(Original post by katecurran)
would anyone mind explaining what a co-operative is regarding the housing provided by a housing association which it talks about on page 18 of the booklet. I don't understand what this means so I'm finding it a bit difficult to define the key term!
Thank you!

Re: Edexcel Geography DME;The OlympicsReally? That's weird, I think someone else had the same problem yesterday. TSR is hatin' on me atm.(Original post by sophiekutie)
Do you have a mark scheme for the practice paper? Or could you explain the structure of the answers to me?

(it won't let me quote your post?)
I don't have a mark scheme, no... but from the mock exam we did in class (so this is very unofficial!), in section C where you have to make your decision:
- 6 marks should be 3 points explained, with a balanced argument making sure to talk about sustainability and the effect of your choice on local people. Try to use the booklet to refer to specific figures and/or values if relevant.
- 9 marks should aim for around 5 separate points. It should have a good structure with lots of fancy geographical words in it. Your answer should weigh up the advantages and disadvantages of your choice and contain examples.
In both the 6 and 9 mark questions you're assessed on QWC, so your punctuation, grammar, use of specialist terminology etc. should be of a good standard to guarantee full marks.
Someone posted this link - http://edexcelbgeog.ning.com/forum/t...orking-booklet - and if you scroll down, the word document someone posted on there is quite helpful.
Hope this helps - again, it is not official, so don't take it as gospel!

Thank you!!! That is actually really helpful just to have some kind of guidance at all
I'm not sure why it won't let me, just when I press quote, the only part that shows is the ([QUOTE=Paramore) part at the beginning
