Fairly happy with how the exam went :smile:


Glad to hear! Good luck to you!
Which section did you find the best? Coasts or Urbanisation?
I personally found the Urbanisation section best :smile:
Fingers crossed!
There was some sniggering in the exam, invigilator wore sandals with socks! Lol! 😂

How did you find it as a whole?
I honestly didn't find one section better than the other, they were equal in difficulty to me.
Socks and sandles 😂😂😂
easy as pie
A* incoming
What was the KiloMetres question on the ordance survey?

Remembered all my case studies and everything I revised this morning came up!
So happy with this :smile:!

Lets hope the next one isn't that bad :P

Grade Boundaries are most likely going to be high.

Not too bad overall thanks :smile:
Best of luck with your other exams! Business and Physics tomorrow for me :smile:
Exam was easy AF, except that I could only make a guess at what a socio-economic inequality was lol. Other than that the exam went smoothly. Probably expecting an A* but it seems it went well for everyone else on here too.

If you're talking about the 8 marker on soft engineering, then I spoke about beach replenishment and reprofiling, as well as managed retreat and planting mangrove forests and trees; all of these I believe are appropriate, but beach replenishment was definitely appropriate.

I talked about managed retreat, beach nourishment and vegetation matting

If 4 was tourism, then I did that was as well. I found that fairly easy and you didn't have to use many case studies 😊

Yes, question 4 was investigating global tourism, which was easy and didn't really require any case studies.
What do you think this years grade boundaries will be?
