Edexcel A-Level Geography Paper 3 | 10th June 2024 [Exam Chat]

The answer was -0.04 but u had to leave its as -0.0 to get the second mark as it was to 1 dp

Did anyone mention about Haiti’s corrupt governance in either the 18 or 24 marker?

yh i did and how it linked to poor housing quality which then led to immense financial and human costs during natural hazards, hindering development and economic stability

yall idk if i put -0.04 or 0.04 does it matter

did anyone use franks dependency theory when talking about colonialism in haiti or was it a reach ?

but -0.0 isn't a number! so doesnt that mean that tthey gave us a SR table that doesnt work. also ive never seen a SR that is a negative

U really said 0 isn’t a number??

The answers 0 so whatever u got was wrong either way unfortunately

What did you guys write for the 24 marker I found it too vague personally

I concluded with saying that international action is what resulted In Haiti's current *****y situation; and so isn't the solution to a prosperous future. I compared Haiti to Cuba, saying that Cuba is miles ahead so Haiti should just follow in their footsteps and have a revolution to overthrow the (lack of) government. How about you?

All the other essays was fine- the 24 marker had me fishing out points and it was hard to do it, but what I said was:
1) international action: Haiti will be able to open up by joining IGOs to allow more trade - more economic growth
2) local action: Haiti needs to have a localised change - governance and corruption
3) international action: Haiti’s future will be insecure due to the role of climate agreements
4) local action: Haiti’s stability and its population needs to be maintained through rebuilding infrastructures (fig 9) to maintain stability for the pop

i said that overtime although haiti will face short term disadvantage it would slowly develop into the secondary industry then tertiary industry (used rostows development model) and potentially reduce poverty like it did in China as China used to have widespread poverty.

0 should be correct because you were workign out a correlation which is between -1 - 1 so 0 just means that there is no collelation betweeen the variables which is the answer to part c

i said that overtime although haiti will face short term disadvantage it would slowly develop into the secondary industry then tertiary industry (used rostows development model) and potentially reduce poverty like it did in China as China used to have widespread poverty.

Highly unlikely scenario, but you could argue it I guess. Haiti just doesn't have the resources (human/ physical/ natural) to do what China did.

The answers 0 so whatever u got was wrong either way unfortunately

Surely 0 isn't correct tho cos they said 1 decimal place so technically that is 0.0?
