Useful photos from Doniford

Here is a selection of photos that might be of use to you in writing up your fieldwork. Obviously - use your own photos if you can; but these are all available for use. I have left them untitled on purpose - the idea is that you are able to select the photos you want to illustrate your points.

Exam Technique...
A little list of tips to help you make the best use of what you know in the exam...

Remember - reading the questions and looking at the diagrams carefully will help you to get more marks.
Don't be frightened off by bits of questions that look hard - do the bits you can (there normally will be some on every question no matter how hard it looks).
Work steadily - you have 90 minutes to get 100 marks so there's no need to rush.
USE the geology words that you know - they get you extra marks.
Look at the number of marks availbale. On 1 and 2 mark questions answer with that number of facts. On 3 - 5 mark questions give one more fact than there are marks for the question (this gives the examiner another chance to give you the marks).
I'd say good luck - but if you've thoroughly prepared for the exam you won't need it!
So - may your success rise like an anticline and may al your faults be breaks in the rock (normal, reverse or thrust)!
