How it is assessed

At SL, Paper 1 (options, 1 hour 30 minutes) is 35%, Paper 2 (geographic perspectives and global change, 1 hour 15 minutes) 40% and the fieldwork IA 25%. At HL, Paper 1 (2 hours 15 minutes, one more option) is 35%, Paper 2 25%, Paper 3 (global interactions, 1 hour) 20% and the IA 20%.

Where marks are lost

Marked work shows the same patterns year after year:

✓ Case studies without names, places or figures
✓ Resource questions answered without quoting the data
✓ Essays without a clear conclusion
✓ Fieldwork questions too broad to investigate
✓ Too much time on short questions in Paper 2
