How did everyone find that?? I thought the weather and climate questions were really easy, but the 7 marker for world cities was so difficult I definitely messed up on that!! Anyone who did the Conflict 40 marker how did you structure it? I think I might have gotten it wrong, whoops

Tectonics and development short answers? So awful
I know I've thrown away so many marks

They had done exactly the same conflict essay before? Surely you should have got it right?

I thought it was okay, 7 marks w&c wasn't nice

Well I think I talked about the right stuff but it was more about my argument; did I need to argue against the statement at all? Because I didn't which worries me

I loved this exam! The ecosystems and world cities questions were so good although I was a bit stuck for things to say on the WC 7 marker. Not so sure how great I did on the tectonic essay as I didn't have enough time to write everything but I think it still went okay :smile:

development and globalisation essay was horrific, very hard to write 40 marks on TNCs and the global economy

I spoke about the positive and negative impacts that TNCs have had on china. And also the impact of walmart on developing and developed world. Wrote about how they lead to reduced corporation tax rates.

Island arc/ocean trenches are things that are mentioned on the syllabus explicity. So was plate tectonic theory?

I thought the tectonics structured was awful apart from the 10 marker, for the conflicts structured what was that picture?! I completely made that up! Don't sure I wrote in enough detail for the rest of them :/ and I did the climates essay which I thought was alright. I'm just hoping for low grade boundaries!

Great exam! Only difficult question was the world cities 7 marker. I might have messed up the trench one, I said it formed at oceanic-oceanic margins parallel to an island arc

I found world cities a hard 7 marker, I would be interested in what themes plate tectonic essay people used?

I mentioned technology about predicting the earthquakes and new buildings being able to be designed to withstand earthquakes. I constantly comapred pros and cons of technology using my two case studies, l'aquila and Kashmir then mentioned about other ways such as planning, evacuations, education, emergency services and concluded by saying the best way to reduce the impacts is a mix of all factors

Just had a look at the mark scheme for this question. At the end it says 'any conclusion can be credited as long it's reasonable and relatable to the proceeding content and argument' does that mean I can make a one sided argument as long as it's reasonable? Or do I need discussion between 'for' and 'against'?
