Hi,
I know A2 only require 3 topics for the geog 03 exam, but our school has made us do 4 for 'flexibility', has any other school/college made you do that?
we are studying plate tectonics, ecosystems, world cities and development :-)

Wow that is a lot of work! I am doing the same topics apart from ecosystems. Our school prefer to focus on 3 topics instead of bringing in extra ones. I think you should just study the 3 topics you are most comfortable with, otherwise the workload will be too much and you might end up confusing yourself.

Got full ums at AS so need 120/200ish for an A overall - not fussed about the subject anymore, focusing on my other subjects.

Topics - world cities (awful), tectonics (awful) and ecosystems (awful). I hate geography.

Need a C this year to get an A overall - been predicted A* but no way that will happen hahaha
My 40 markers are terrible and I feel I will never be able to learn these case studies. A2 geog seems marginally harder than AS :frown:

Plate tectonics is proving to be a burden - barely understand all the extrusivity and intrusivity stuff

All my AS geography notes are on my old laptop and there was only a mention of what fracking is as I don't think it's even on the syllabus.

I have a friend who is doing Spanish and she knows much more about fracking than I do.
