I did A1, A2, B5 and C6 and I thought I'd done reall well but I've just realised I might have just put C instead of C6. Hopefully the examiners are intelligent to work out but I really hope I dont lost 25 marks because of that.

I did 2,3,6,8. =D
This might sound weird but I actually enjoyed that paper (esp q3!XD), despite that my favourite topics didn't come up..>__<.
I also wrote some ridiculous answers alnogside some of my main points too..XD Well, gotta keep the examiners entertained.XD

Good luck with the next one gus, 12th, we still have some time! ^__^

I did Q2,3,6,8
Hated section A. I knew it would be rivers/coasts but hated both Q. I started rivers than crossed it out and did coasts which I hadn't revised, and vaguely made things up for the case study.
Units 2,3,4 were good. exactly what I predicted came up:
-China's One Child Policy
- Farming
-Global warming & Rainforest
And I can now throw all my sheets of revision away!! :biggrin:

Howdy, so what questions did you all pick and how did you find them?
I chose;

Question 1: Rivers
Question 4: Rural to Urban Migration
Question 6: Farming & Agriculture
Question 8: Global Warming

1: Rivers (I was annoyed no tectonic plates :frown:

)
3: Population ( :smile:

)
6: Farming (Weird case study at the end, not learned in class, but I could guess what to put. I choose India and the rice farming so I just talked about inputs, processes and outputs and difference between poor and rich farmers)
8: Global Warming ( :smile:

)

I think I got an A, I hope for an A* but I'll just have to see.

Yeah, that's the one! I didn't like the questions on the Farming one. :s

Right, on the Global Warming question did anyone else miss out the first question by accident? I did. >_> I started on the question about similarities and differences, totally missing out the first question underneath the diagram on the first page. Never mind.

Yeahh, it was pretty hard to see... so i wouldn't worry about it, i'm sure loads of people did that!

Did anybody find it really hard to find second question on unit one (the coasts one). It was only like 1/3 of a page and i just ignored it thinking that it was still part of the rivers, spent a while looking at the booklet like a bit of a freak with a completely blank look haha.
