It won't be everything except glaciers but that's why you don't do the glaciers questions. Glaciers is an optional topic so your teacher would have chosen to do coasts and rivers.

No, I'm on about the optional topics in papers 1 and 2. It might help if you take a look at the specification - https://www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/geography/gcse/geography-8035

All of what

we don't get what to chose until the exam, but I don't know what I am capable with in the hot or cold environments. and I have to do both really a point. I probably focus more on costal stuff because it can help my coursework.

You shouldn't have been.

why???
Original post by Rosegal !!!!
why???

Because the question will never ask you for both. You are meant to be taught Cold Environments OR Hot desert environments

I think they want us to do both to see what my class finds easier and decide what one they want to do. I focus on the cold envrionments.

Just be aware that you don't have to learn both cold and desert environments.

These are the optional topics:

Hot desert OR Cold Environments
Two from - Coastal landscapes OR River landscapes OR Glacial Landscapes

Food OR Water OR Energy


There is little point learning all of it.
