FREE SAMPLE
One Geographical applications: papers, issue evaluation and fieldwork question with explanations
Open a question, choose an answer in your head, then open the explanation.
Q1 Evaluate evidence
A pre-release pack shows a proposed flood barrier, a cost estimate, a map of protected neighbourhoods and a statement from a port operator. Explain two factors a decision-maker should consider before supporting the proposal.
4 marks
Show a model answer
Model answer. Decision-makers should compare the cost with the number and value of people, homes and infrastructure protected, including who benefits and who pays. They should also assess environmental effects, impacts on port access, uncertainty in flood projections and alternative strategies such as restoring wetlands.
That's the free sample. The rest of the questions are available with a paid plan.
