For the last rebranding question I put down Cornwall needed rebranding, would that count?


I am sorry mate, but I am afraid this wouldn't get many marks as Cornwall is recognized as a rural area, and the question was specifically asking about urban, and therefore you should have talked about rebranding before London olympics, Canary Wharf in London etc...
Or manchester, Or Birmingham or whatever other case studies you did but cornwall. May be even about your fieldwork.

It is risky. I would consider most rebranding strategies in Cornwall to be rural

Great
Would I be marked down if I did groups instead of stakeholders for the conflict question? I said tourists & locals and industry & locals as well as fishermen & conservationists...

had cornwall as coastal rebranding so hopefully it can be translated to urban! after all, i'm pretty sure it's a city

Pretty sure Cornwall is not a city!
Could you talk about more than one urban case study for the last question? I talked about birmingham, london dockloands and the new york city high line.. Would I get credited at all for the other two? I also talked about stratford for the fieldwork and research and then the Docklands- would I get credited for the Docklands? Lastly I talked about studland bay when I put the location as north nolfolk coast. Would I get credited for the Studland bay part? Yes, I knew the knowledge but fudged up really hard in terms of the question only wanting me to talk about one place >.<

Did anyone do Rebranding and Crowded Coasts?

How did you feel about it?

It felt hard in general, half of the questions were hard and I ran out of time
Do you think they'll push the grade boundaries up or down?
Did no one actually read the questions?!

Asked to write about 1 location. Writes 3
Asked to write about urban. Writes rural

You had to choose only 1 urban area so I think you'll just get marks for whatever area you wrote on the top line
CROWDED COAST:

What fieldwork did you say for the coastal management

Gg I commit :biggrin: Memorized a whole booklet of 10,000 words just to **** up :biggrin: :P
Predictions for grade boundaries?
Also for the Crowded Coast impacts on beach resource question do you think you can get full marks mentioning only 3 out of the 4 shown impacts?
I didn't cross the box at the top of the page to indicate what question I was going to do! Do you think it will still get marked?

extreme weather: Weather diary, technology, probably management techniques too
rebranding: I'm feeling heritage stuff, sustainable rebranding, and how we see if it was a success or not?

looked at all past papers and not feeling too nervous but messed up u1 so need to nail this


u fools nobody listened to me

As long as you refer to the figure at least once you can get to the top band. Its if you dont refer to it atall you are limited.
