have you someone to sign off your project?

its
- physical ( earthquakes, volcanoes etc)
- Regional ( studying dublin, paris and other regions)
- elective ( human or economic) human studying why people move from place to place etc. Economic dealing with MNC'S eu etc
- the option( more than likely geoecology which isnt too bad apart from this section of the paper where you have to write around a three page essay and are marked on coherence
- short questions, easy, lots of skill based questions, ticking boxes, junior cert really

I like it, but it is all rote learning unfortunately. Exam skills by sue honan is a book id recommend, the text books dont seem to be great.

any questions feel free to ask:)

Thanks a mil. Going to take on geography in Pearse college so will have someone to sign off on it.

Just a couple more questions.

What does the project involve?
Is the essay marked very hard?
What would make the diff between getting B or an A?
