53/60 on the coursework.

Topics: The Restless Earth, The Coastal Zone, Water On The Land

Revision Techniques: Case Studies all around my room and spamming the past papers!

:biggrin:

We're doing the same topics, then! For Human, I'm doing Population, Globalisation and Urban Environments (we don't really call them their official names in our school so sorry if I got them wrong!)

Hmm, the cgp guide isn't that good. Use the phillip allan one or use the aqa endorsed textbook. The CGP guides don't explain things that well and although some of the case studies are good, some aren't that good.

Same topics: D

I'm pretty sure we are. I did a CA on the CBD of Orpington. Did you do something similar but for a different area? It was so boring!

I found it really boring. Got to revise now for Physics and English lit. There is so much to do that I think I'll just leave Bio for the weekend (not this weekend but the one after that)

You must be using the AQA textbook with the green parts on the side, can't remember what it's called. Doing the exact same ones!

It's you again! And I'm doing the same topics as well. If you have any very concise notes that cover everything, it would be much appreciated :-)

We didn't have coursework but we had a controlled assessment (not sure if they're the same!) but I somehow managed to get 60/60- very pleased! :smile:
