Geography Exam Tips from Top Scorers

Use located case studies

Name and locate every example — a specific place, date, and statistic earns far more than a vague generalisation.

Answer the command term

"Examine", "discuss", and "to what extent" need a balanced argument and a justified judgement, not a list of facts.

Quote the resource

On data-response parts, lift exact figures and units off the map, graph, or infographic and name any anomaly.
