Tips
• Time Management: Develop a Study timetable (include other subjects). Include other
activities on the timetable, relaxation, family time etc
• Organise your notes for studying and revision.
• Continuously ask geographical questions when studying (HOW, WHAT, WHERE, WHY,
WHEN). This will help you to cover every angle of the topic you are studying.
• Get all the past papers and use it to get used to the way questions are worded. Get used
to the language used in the papers and the correct Geography “words” and terminology
to use when answering a question.
• Look at the mark allocation and plan your answers accordingly.
• Look at the questioning techniques and verbs use. Explain how; Explain why (new way
of questioning); also, still know and understand the Verbs used in the questions.
• The following types of questions appear in the paper/s (Short questions, Data response
questions and paragraph questions)
• Always write full sentences unless you are asked to give a one-word answer.
• Read the extracts with understanding, sometimes you are expected to quote from the
extract in your answers.
• Read the questions with understanding. Underline/highlight key words and phrases in
the question (use highlighter on question paper only NOT answer sheet)
• Know ALL your calculations. Any calculation can appear in any of the two papers. Know
the mark allocation of the calculations (as set out in the 2021 Exam guidelines)
• Know how to use the topographic map and orthophoto map together to answer different
questions.
• Read the question clearly to know if the question refers to the topographic map or the
orthophoto map OR BOTH to answer a question.
• Make sure you take all your “tools” (ruler, calculator, protractor, pencil, eraser etc) to the
exam room, no borrowing allowed
