I felt it was the other way around for me lol but that could be due to the fact I literally didn't start revising until a couple days before my exams.

But some of the questions were really annoying like the immediate response and relief questions I hardly knew anything as I only knew how they would respond to earthquakes over time but immediately?
uhm yeah idk lol


I'm so happy I knew what to write for that question.i remember doing a sheet on it in class to do with the Kashmir Earthquake. I wrote how to begin with, it was risky and unsafe, as the survivors pulled the people out the rubble. And then the rapid rescue team arrive and this makes it more efficient and effective. Then in the next 8 days 60 countries offered aid which benefited as of Pakistans economic situation.

Am I screwed if I wrote about agroforestry, afforestation and extractive reserves for the management measures for the biosphere question? I feel like I flopped the last question too - I wrote about how climate change would cause droughts leading to overgrazing and soil erosion in arid regions; and in polar regions it would be hard to hunt due to ice-caps melting.

I wrote about agroforestry in Talamanca, Costa Rica for the Biosphere question too!
Your answer to the las question is good!, as both result in them not being able to sell food and so lose money to economies.
I messed that question up so bad, I talked about climate change leading to species migration, so they can't hunt and sell polar bears XD made no sense.

it's not easy to make an unofficial mark scheme on geography yknw. If you ask the teachers, they will have access to the mark scheme so you might as well ask (assuming you've already done the test)
