GCSE Geography Case studies

For the case studies for geography , is it recommended to learn every single response + effect to the event or should you pick a few responses + effects to memorise?

Hiya, I'm not sure what exam board you're doing, but I sat the Edexcel B exams earlier this year.
Since an 8 marker in this board requires 3 paragraphs (though you can get away with 2 in some cases, but ignore this if you're more comfortable with 3), I would always recommend learning only 3 responses, 3 effects and 3 preparation methods for each case study.

This method is what got me a grade 9 without overstimulation/the need to remember a whole textbook's worth of info, so pick the 3 that stand out most to you per event. Hope this helps in some way :smile:
