Most of my friends did that today (about 60% of the entire year group does Geography!). I hope you did well!

Yep I did the DME today.
I just managed to finish the last question luckily; but in general I found it pretty easy. You grade really depends on the depth of your answer; most of my answers were about 3/4 page with the last one being extra long lol. Well hopefully it went well for you :smile: How did yu find it??? What option did you choose?

What is Geography DME? :smile:


DME stands for Decision Making Exercise. Its basically a 1 hour 45 minute geography exam where you study a range of resources on a theme (you get the resources three weeks in advance) and you have to make a decision concerning the issue (Ecotourism in this case). The exam consists of three sections background, options and decision with each section being worth 20 marks. This accounts for 30% of the final geography grade.
