Has anyone been given a prediction for Paper 2 Rural Land Resources?

I'm thinking the first 20 marks are going to be coasts this year because it's been glaciation and limestone for the last 3 years, then the stuff about conflicts is pretty much the same every year

I know it's hard but try not to get too nervous. I don't get nervous now because I worried too much last year and felt really bad when doing the exam. Remember a good breakfast and water! :smile:

I'm doing urban change for paper 2 :smile:

There's always a shanty town question and i think it might be housing changes in inner city? but that's just my guess

Thanks

My teacher is predicting atmospheric circulation or oceanic circulation and the possibility they may ask physical factors of global warming

hey guys, if the question for rural land resources is coastal, does that mean we only have to describe formation of coastal features/coastal erosion or do we also have to do coastal socio-economic opportunities/conflicts?
I know how to describe coastal features but I don't know socio-economic opportunities/conflicts- I only know those for upland landscapes (yorkshire dales)
Will we get a choice between coastal/upland socio-economic opportunities and conflicts?

I think they usually give you a choice of either upland or coastal for the second part

hmm, do you think I should bother revising the coastal socio-economic opportunities/conflicts or just stick to the dales?
wish I'd thought of this earlier than the night before haha :frown:

Might be a good idea to try and cram some of it now, it seems that they sometimes don't give you a choice and the sqa can be sneaky
