I didn't choose it as my option but I really want to take it for a level so I was wondering if you can teach yourself it at home?
I would have to do an exam bored with no controlled assessments and just exams but does anyone know if this is possible?

I think it's perfectly doable. I don't think any of the content is too difficult.
First, download the syllabus and order a revision guide from your exam board. You can use the revision guide to take notes from, and the syllabus to tick off what you've done. That's really all there is to it!
I think Geography is easy enough to teach yourself if you find it easy already, yes. And if you don't understand something there's always videos online.
Good luck~!

It's really easy so that wouldn't be much of a problem. Not sure how you'd sort coursework really though.

I have just done GCSE geography with AQA. We did tourism, rocks, weather, glaciation, rural environments and urban environments. If I can help at all let me know. I'll see what useful notes I have.

The coursework isn't a problem on Cambridge. You do more than you do in AQA by the sounds of it, but i don't think it goes into deeper info? Idk i enjoyed it tho!

Do Edexcel IGCSE Geography. They have a text book you can by from amazon and cambridge don't. Plus all the past papers are on edexcel's website where as Cambridge don't put them up online.

That's a good point, though i wouldn't use the Cambridge textbook anyway because it's a bit crap
