CIE Geography Paper 2 & 3 questions.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how marks are given for CIE IGCSE Geography Paper 2 and 3?

They roughly have the same format, (a) and (b), awarding 10 and 15 marks respectively.

I know that (b) needs a case study or at least a reference to a country to be able to score high marks. But overall, how much marks are given for a point of answer?

If it is 15 marks, do I give roughly 7 factors on why it is difficult to meet global demand? (each factor hopefully scoring 2 marks). And 10 marks giving 5? However five seems a little... little?

Thanks in advance! :smile:
