hey,

i did coastal processes and hazards.

in coastal processes you had to analyse if humans had more impact in shaping the coast more than natural processes, constructive wave description

In the hazards section how past and current developments effects the scale of imparct, and does volcanic hazards cause more destruction that volcanic hazards.

Yeah I did...
We had questions on:
- The Human Impacts on Drainage Basins.
- Whether Changes to the Carbon Cycle Affect Severe Storm Events.
- The Role of Photosynthesis in the Carbon Cycle

Can't remember the rest but was not too bad.

I'm stuffed for tomorrow though, changing places is horrible and not sure how to revise it.

Ah right well I'm doing AQA as the title suggests. But yes we do fieldwork but that's included in our Paper 2.

Hi, For the field work investigation enquiry we did scarborough and Hornsea for physical and human.

Is it possible to use scarborough in my changing places exam aswell and use it as my distant place study.

Would i be able to get away with it.

Well i wouldn't see why you wouldn't be able too. As long as you know enough about Scarborough in context of the changing places questions then no problem!

Changing Places is the most pointless thing going, just saying.

For the peeps who have done this exam (I'll be tested on carbon and water cycle, urban environments and coasts for my end f years next week) is the test a completely unseen paper your teachers have been given or a bunch of collated past paper questions? Do u think I'll get the same paper? Thanks

They may use the AS exam paper that we have done or it may be a specimen paper.

hey, I'm doing the new a level too...
I'm currently doing changing places and I have a project to do (basically a 3000 word case study essay type thing) about 2 places... I have loads of data for both places but my teacher hasn't given a title or anything??? So I'm struggling with it. I wondered if anyone has done anything similar?

Also has anyone started fieldwork yet?

I'm just about to start my field work, I will either be doing in about Changing Places or Coasts, which I'll decided after our field trip to the coast ( we've already been to East London , Stratford in particular). How do you even answer the changing places Exam questions!? I can hit 16/17 marks on the 20 markers but have you seen the specimen paper where there is literally two pictures of rivers and asking how they show economic change? 😂
