    how many challenges??

    I went over housing, traffic/public transport+pollution, unemployment, water+power+sanitation problems. I think there is no set way to approach it, You probably needed to put in 1 or 2 more extra challenges piccaninny, but then again I'm just guessing. But if people listed many challenges but...

    Multiple choice section

    Just to clear things up, I think many people are confused with the concept, (it took me a while to figure it out) I'll quote from my trusty Geography skills book: "Large scale maps show a small area of land" "Small scale maps show a large area of land. Examples of small scale maps are...

    Multiple choice section

    Well I can assure you that Photo 2 had the smallest scale, My teacher went through it with us at the end and said it was definately Photo 2. I quote from my Geography skills book: "Large-scale Maps show a small area of land" Hence a small scale map would show a large area of land!

    Multiple choice section

    Yep, Photo 2 had the smaller scale but yeah i know i got 1 wrong already, Q14, stupid mistake, It wanted specifically the direction in the Area reference, and not the overall direction flow of the whole river

    Geog Exam...

    Yeah on the whole, it was probably slightly harder than the previous two years. The essay questions were a joke, in the sense they were generic and didn't test you on case studies and were so broad that even if you didn't know too much on a topic u could get away with Bulls#iting..... The...

    geo hsc 2003

    Multiple choice was slightly harders than previous years, but not too difficult. Short answers were tough, and the vocation question was very ambiguous. Essays were very generic, easy to do but i didn't like em....

    Vertical Exaggeration

    yeah with VE, its simply Vertical Scale / Horizontal Scale So it would've been 1/1000 divided by 1/50000, and u just type it into ur calculator and u get 50, its only worth 1 mark, so dun worry bout it too much, I'm worried about that vocation question, I'm sooo buggered for that
  11. S

    Vertical Exaggeration

    the answer should be 50 for VE.

    ecosystems at risk dilemma

    If they ask a question on something general on ecosystems Eg. " Assess the vulnerability of ecosystems" You would talk about vulnerability in general and bring in examples from your case studies. They can also ask you about vulnerability in your specific case study ecosystem. Eg. "Assess...

    What are all your case studies?

    actually you don't need case studies for world cities or mega cities, the syllabus doesn't require u to have case studies for world or mega cities, but use the cities you studied as illustrative examples...

And when I mean injuries, I'm not talking about your pulled hamstring or whatever, t's more like getting hurt because you're taking on a...
