Heya so for geography id recommend doing mindmaps of case study’s with the key facts.Also doing lots of practice questions and going over. Topics u dont know to maximise your marks. YouTube is good to watch some summaries and also quizlet as they have already made pre resources on their like quizzes and flashcards so u wont hv to make them depending on ur exam board.I got a A in geography so if u hv any more questions dont hesitate to ask! Good with your exams and coursework :grin:

Hiya I found mind maps the best and also just writing them out over and over. Flash cards were helpful as well! It is a lot to learn tho

for geography, i found the best way to layout my case studies was if i actually imagined i was providing evidence for each point i was making, like i was a solicitor. if a question asks you to explain or assess, they’re asking for you to make your own judgement. for example, if a question came up and was assess that globalisation negatively impacts the environment, id write almost a pros and cons list, why it does affect the environment (water contamination etc) and then link each point with a case study i can remember and the same for why it doesn’t
idk if that helps at all
