Rivers, Coasts and rivers fieldwork. Rivers was fine, coasts was a bit weirder, fieldwork was slightly wacky but 8 marker was fine. Hbu?

I'm so glad someone feels the same as me, it's been lingering over me aha! I spent sm time revising, especially all the longer mark questions of the formation of different landforms but none of those came up. I didn't really use any of the case studies I revised too aha. I liked the fieldwork 8 marker though because I predicted that using what had previously come up.

Ah, I do hazards instead of rivers. Coasts was definitely quite odd

I'm going to need to do well in paper 2 😭. I usually prefer physical geography too. At least it's after half-term so there's a decent amount of time to revise.

I actually did globalisation first which was the best decision I made - I had loads of time and could make lots of points. That did mean though that I had little time for urban fieldwork. Economic activity and energy and urbanisation I found really easy tho
