Geography A Level OCR - Old spec
Watch
Hiya,
I haven't been able to find any threads for those still doing the old spec for Geography.
Seeing as this is the last year, anyone still out there doing it? If so, what do you reckon will come up?

Let's just hope the questions are nice, since this is the last year and all!

That's understandable - there really is no point in knowing all 4 anyways

Yeahhh, the main issue last year was many didn't read/answer the question properly, as shown in the examiner's report.

& what did you guys write for the ways to solve conflict in coastal areas?.
Spoiler:
Qs i remember:
Rivers:
1) *using figure* why is it susceptible to flooding
2) how would you manage it (?)
3) what 2 traits about rivers make human activities locate themselves there
4) how does sea level drop affect formation of landforms
cold environments:
1) photo of a meltwater-y mess: describe the environment.
2) suggest how / process that could have made the landforms
3) 2 economic opportunities
4) how flora adapts.
coastal essay:
1) assess how conflicts between activities can be solved (?)
