  Hi guys. My mid year term assessment is approaching and I am worried about my Geog coz i am nt sure how to answer questions properly. Like must we include examples and statistics for those high marks questions? Basically, I just do not know the correct structure of answering geog questions. Any help will be appreciated!

  hi,

  For geo, now  it's a Level based marking ler, just like SS

  erm for me right..i usually write my answers in paragraphs for essay qns..each paragraph one point..within each paragraph, will be as following:

  1) Intro

  2)write out the facts

  3) give figures and examples like country or year and the numbers involve..as well as a cause and effect..

  usually like that can get high marks ler, and yeah write out as many things u can to supplement your points, just make sure it's relevant.. It's just my personal humble opinion bah..

  hi.. As more me it will be, paragraph by paragraph.. in each paragraph 1 main point then inside each paragraph, 1) Introduction to the point you want to say 2) Explain your point 3) Gives real figures and examples( Do not "smoke" the examiner!) For questions like " How far..., How useful.. is these measure good in reducing the...growth of population, numbers of illegal loggers.. etc " I will write the pros and cons.. usually the bad points at the last few paragraph... and usually the bad points is less than the good points.. like for good points: 4 paragraph... bad points 1paragraph... For the pros, try to give more additional good measures that can help to reduce.. the bla bla bla.. Then I will conclude(sometimes.. ) I hope this helps..
