Do you need a diagram for the 10-marker? Or is it purely data response? :smile:

I always get 9-10 marks.I always give a definition for 1 or 2 of the key terms in the question.Then i give a statement 'It is clear that ....'Then i usually back it with data, making comparisons(if i have to) as i go along.I make sure i write 2-3 paragraphs with continues use of data and analysis. then finally i give a value judgement, stating whether i agree with the statement

If you need anymore help, just ask and ill send you a sample of my past paper

Hi, If you can that would be amazing! I would like to see how someone approaches this question because I usually get like 4 marks because I don’t know what i’m doing. So 2-3 paragraphs and using the data mhmm i’m always bad at interpreting data and using it to make valid points in the 10 marker.
Also do you have a 15 marker sample answer? I’m relying on the 10 marker and 15 marker to get me decent marks along with the 30 MCQ in case the 25 marker is too hard or goes bad ;(

Thank you very much!

i am unable to submit it here as its a screenshot, but if you send me your email in inbox, i can send it to you

How does one structure the 10 marker, 15 marker and 25 marker?

Maybe a dumb question but if the 15-marker asks specifically about a Macro topic, is it safe to just talk about Macro even though it's a synoptic paper? And vice-versa?

Me too ;( i’m having dreams and seeing monopoly regulation and policies, custom unions, and Trade as the likely topics to come up. 😂😂😂 I’m hoping custom unions come up because I revised that now the most lol.

Can development come up coz it was in a past paper so it shouldn’t come up ;(<

If it is just asking for a macro topic (e.g. inflation) then there is no point mentioning a micro point.

How do we structure the 10 marker?
Do we need to use chains of analysis to explain why the data might show something?
E.g. last year's asked 'To what extent, if at all, do the data suggest that the reliance on fossil fuels to produce energy is falling?'
If the data did show that reliance was falling, would we have to suggest why it's falling? And then go into that

As far as I know...

- Make a point (supporting or arguing against the question, unless it's telling you to go one way)
- Use the data to demonstrate why - you might need to manipulate the data (percentage change etc)
- Suggest a reason - use theory and/or chains of analysis to suggest why it may happen
- Evaluate - give a reason why this may not be true

Do this three times then make a judgement and and critique the data - link back to the question as ever.
And apparently no diagrams needed for the 10-marker.
