To be honest, I'd rather do IGCSE even if that means memorising more.... it sounds more interesting and the way the paper is structured is actually more pleasing to me than the normal gcse... I love russia in revolution !! haha it's a shame i'm not doing it for a-level seeing as I'm not that fascinated by tudors :/

I know and the fact that it was one of the early questions made it worse, gave me a feeling the worse was yet to come, but luckily there want much that was as bad. And you did hazards, right? What did you write concerning the one where they asked how should earthquake proof buildings be made or designed?

me i wrote alot on that...concrete buildings reinforced with steel girders, foundations sunk deep below avoiding the clay(soft rocks which might liquefy), rubber shock absorbers to absorb some of the shock waves, buildings with window shutters whick close during earthquake to prevent falling glass and killing people, and buildings to be made out of steel which cross bracing so the building is flexible and absorbs some shocks....
