Geography, higher or foundation? confused HELP

In my mocks i did edexcel geography higher and got a D (I missed out the last question and 3 others because I wasnt feeling too well and couldnt concentrate), that was my first geography exam. In my coursework i got an A so this could always make my grade go 1 up. My teacher is expecting 70% of the class to get an A or an A*. She has given me a choice to choose what I want to do, foundation or higher. I chose foundation thought it would be easier, but i've never done foundation geography before so God knows what i'll get. How easy is it to get a D in foundation? If i get a D then I'll end up with a C because of my coursework. But if in higher I get a U then it'll be a waste of time. I am not that good at geography at all. My teacher told me I could choose which one I want to do when I go to the exam hall ( I could swap with somebody else)

Help My exam is tommorow :confused:

I did the higher paper in the mocks and just scraped a C. I've been entered for the foundation paper this time round, but with the added bonus that I've got an A for my coursework.

well its up to you.. but if you were having an off day,then maybe you could go into the higher and give it your best crack, its like maths, my mat eis doing intermediate beacuse she got 40% on the higher.. but that is a B and she could easily get an A but shes really annoyed about it, if your courseworks high then see how you feel on the day. I do OCR and ive already done 50% of the exam because we do this DME which gives us 30% but its up to you in the end, and depends on what your final grade aim is :smile:
