i did the urban questions and energy essay as well and i completely agree with you the first three in the urban weren't very nice.
i thought the energy essay was harsh as that sort of question had never come up before in the past papers. I wrote about changes in technology, different levels of economic development and changes in demand and awareness of renewables etc. what about you???

Yeh I was so surprised by that essay question! Tbh I should of chosen the tourism essay .. ahh regrets !
yeh I talked about economic stability, availability of resources and environmental awareness ! I kept on getting so confused though, I was pretty much just talking about the energy mix of different countries and the factors that affect them but nts if thats the same as energy supply. Also found it really hard to talk about variation over both time and space! do you remember if it said 'global pattern' or just 'pattern' ?

i think it said just pattern....
'describe and explain the the factors affecting the variations in the pattern of energy supply, through time and space'
i think although now you say it i'm not entirely sure.

honestly same! I'm pretty sure everyone would of struggled with that one, such a weird topic for a 9 marker! and same for the flora 9 marker in the physical paper!! it's like they're putting all the what used to be 6 mark questions as 9 markers , so meannn
