Urgent help with NEA Aqa a level geography

Hi,

I am in year 12 and need to pick my NEA title, but I honestly don't have a clue what to do, my teachers aint helping me one bit either, I really need to get the highest possible marks but don't know what title would be the easiest etc, any tips?

I haven't done GCSE geography either so obviously haven't done any fieldwork before either, so any help will be appreciated!

Ok I would say start from scratch:
Do you want to do physical or human?
What do you enjoy most in geography/What made you choose geography especially considering that you did not do GCSE geography?
Where do you want to conduct your NEA? (If you school is not telling you a place/not taking you on a trip)
If this gives you any inspiration, my NEA titles was 'To what extent has regeneration in Hong Kong improved inequality between ethnic groups?' and the reason for myself was that I am interested in urban geography, so urban regeneration was something I like looking into, Hong Kong because I am from Hong Kong and that's where there was a spark for me in geography and I coincidentally was in Hong Kong for the summer, inequality between ethnic groups because I felt like there was too little focus on how ethnic minorities are treated in Hong Kong.

The teacher only marked it today and she cannot tell us our marks until it’s been moderated, but what my teachers do is that they might not even fully read it but have the mark scheme next to it and look for keywords

My project was related to glaciation howeve you can choose any question relating to the topics in your text book. Will you be going on a fieldwork trip to the lake district bc then you can base your NEA on what you learn there
