I said that they farm the land using terraces. They grow tea there and it's in terraces so they can retain water. I also mentioned about the llamas in figure 2b and said they're used to transport goods up the steep slopes. I hope this is correct!

I hope the grade boundaries will be as LOW AS THE MEANING IN THE QUESTIONS OF THE 8 MARKERS!!!

Hi
For the Coastal zone for the last question about the Sea levels rising. Did any of you guys use holderness?

I used holderness and not Maldives
Thanks,


I did Mappleton aswell, I wrote about the erosion and the debate between the farmers and the council (political) about putting in groynes! How did you find it?

The views on this paper are quite mixed..so I say 48 for an A*, considering that I found the 2015 paper easier and that was 46 x
Wait what was the case question on the water on land? Also what did you say for the global distribution of ecosystems in the living world one?

For living world the 8 mark case study comparing economic opportunities in 2 deserts I mixed up the points putting them for the wrong desert but they are right points but for the other one. Will I still be able to gain marks out of 8 for this

what did people write for the "describe the wave" question? The one where it said refer to figure 19.
Destructive wave.

I said things like "destructive waves topple over a beach and destroy the beach. They arrive more often (12-14 times per minute) and occur due to great big fetches."

Would I lose marks for drawing a cross section and a bord eye view?


I'm not sure but if the labels of the characteristics are correct then you probably would get some marks. You might just lose 1 mark for drawing a cross-sectional view.
