Title: Error?
Post by: DalvinT on October 07, 2017, 08:23:23 pm
Hey guys,

I was doing a practice paper and had my teacher to mark. And I got a 3/7 for my response...
check highlighted.
I talked about pre-1750s causes that’s what the title stated.
But then, in the sample answers and when I had my teacher to mark... they talk about the map regarding it as since 1750s.
 Not sure hahah

The map summarises the amount of native vegetation in 2014 as a percentage of how much there was pre 1750.
ie, how much native vegetation has been lost since 1750


Hope this helps

haha yeah.

Just thought I'd respond since horse996 asked about it anyway :P

Should do something to increase the activity of this board so that posts like this aren't so prominent - any ideas?

I don't know, Earth science is a very small cohort so there probably aren't that many people on here that actually do it.

Oops, I didn't realise! Kinda sucks that its such a small cohort tbh, makes it harder to get help with stuff
