Well I remember looking through past papers (or this document) so you can see which topics have come up most recently as these are less likely to come up in this years paper. Obviously its not impossible for a topic to be repeated two years in a row but its unlikely. Also if a topic has come up a few times as smaller mark questions it could come up as a nine marker this year. You can't predict it fully but you can get a decent idea of what could come up by looking through a document like this especially since it has the data from last years gcses as well

So the Exam is tommorow and I was curious to know which other Case Studies people are taking for the Exam. I am doing Lagos, Bristol and Nigeria. Someone told me that some of the Case Studies are quite demanding so I wanted to get a second opinion. Any predictions for tommorows exam would also be appreciated.

Depends on which one has the most amount of informaition to Learn. In your case I would say prioritise the ones that are the most important. Let me know which case studies you are doing and I can tell you from there.

That must be quite overwhelming. Nevertheless, I'd recommend using Chat GPT to try and compact the information, so you only get the important details you need to ace the exam.
