Document preview thumbnail
Preview 1 out of 42 pages

In-depth A2 Advanced Physical Geography revision notes covering all of the syllabus points in order for Arid and Semi-Arid Environments and Hazardous Environments. I scored an A* across this course and dropped very few marks on this paper. I now read Geography at Durham University. These notes have plenty of detail for anybody aiming to achieve an A* in A-Level Geography, with numerous case study examples. The notes have relevant annotated diagrams and are more concise than the textbook meaning revision is more efficient.
