National 5 Geography 2015
There doesn't seem to be a thread for this so I thought I'd start one. Does anyone have any practice papers or pictures of model papers they could put on here?

I predict a coastal map this year, the specimen and 2014 paper were glaciation. I also think there will be 2 maps, 1 physical and 1 human (urban).

For the natural disasters topic, if anyone studied that, do we need to know the causes of the disasters and the formations eg. Tropical storms?
I'm not sure if I need these as I was gives a booklet with alot of unneeded information..

Distribution (read the map given), causes (basically the first bit of formation), case study, plan and predict.

Anyone care to explain the different stages of depression? and also, do we need to know about the Demographic Transition Model? Praying for a good weather question, and a question about a tropical storm! good Luck tomorrow! 
weather depressions: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/geography/weather_climate/weather_systems_rev3.shtml
Warm front>warm sector>cold front>cold sector. Front= rain.
demographic transition:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/geography/population/population_change_structure_rev4.shtml
know the basics, like what happens in terms of birth/death rates in each stage, and examples of countries in each stage.
I'm thinking an air mass or depression/anticyclone question.
It would be nice to have a 'for any hazard you have studied' question too.
Good luck to you too!
What did everyone put for the impact of an earthquake?

Short term aid, long term aid, predict and plan.

How did everyone find the paper?
I personally thought it was fair and of a lesser difficulty that last years. The weather question was a bit of a surprise as it usually deals with air pressure systems but it was manageable.

I swear there was so many 'giving map evidence' questions though. It was also nice that they let you choose your coastal feature for formation.

Do you mean the strategies used to reduce the impact of the earthquake? I put:
1. Dominican Republic sent in heavy machinery to assist with searching people
2. GIS was used to give satellite images and maps of the area
3. WFP provided 10 million packaged food in the 1st week
4. Red Cross put up temporary shelters to help and treat the injured
5. 6000 US troops and marines sent in to prevent looting and violence
6. Many saw the effects of Haiti, so pledged money over their phones.
Hope this helped! How did you guys find exam? Personally, I thought it was really easy, and manageable.
What did you guys put for river features? I put the first grid ref. meander; the 2nd grid ref. levee, and the 3rd grid ref. V-shaped valley

I did stack.. Do you think that would be okay since it wasn't one of the answer? I don't even know what I was thinking.

I only did aid stuff too, but my teacher said it was about prevention.
Was anyone else surprised there was no farming question?
