GCSE Geography

Can anyone give me the general structure of a 6 mark question for GCSE AQA geography? Because I feel like I have no idea how to answer them

Hi,

There is no specific structure highlighted on AQA when responding to a six marker in geography.

However, when I receive six marks, I often use:

2 paragraphs
Each paragraph should have a point, a piece of specific evidence, and an explanation as to why that evidence supports your point. So basically PEE.

I hope this is okay!

The one that I use in school (that works for other questions too) is the structure, PETS and depending on the marks, it tells you how many PETS paragraphs to do. 1 PETS= 3 marks so 2 PETS= 6 marks so you need to write 2 paragraphs.

Point (what you’re trying to say)
Evidence (for example… back up your point or explain it further)
This means...
So…

Hope this helps!
