As you already
known, you will be asked to give a real and detailed example of any topic in
the IGCSE exams. As these questions are the most valuable in the exam (7
marks!), you have to be sure to prepare a good revision.
Because of that,
here you have a summary of examples and cases studies that we have studied in
class during this academic year and you might be able to use in your IGCSE. I have also
include a 6º part with the natural environment cases that we will study after
Easter holydays (eg. Volcanoes, earthquakes, etc.). Have a look... GOOD LUCK!
In the meantime, remeber also the structure
