European Baccalaureate Geography study plan

Map the full European Baccalaureate Geography syllabus into a one-page topic inventory, tagging each topic by weighting and by whether it is physical, human, or regional geography

Define the command verbs used in EB Geography questions (describe, explain, compare, evaluate, justify) and write a model sentence for each

Build a personal glossary of 40 core terms in the language of instruction, with English technical equivalents where standard

Complete two past-paper-style questions on basic map and graph reading and self-mark them against a criteria checklist

Explain the structure of the Earth and the plate-tectonics mechanisms that generate earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain belts

Compare three plate-boundary types and predict the landforms and hazards associated with each

Interpret a climograph and a population pyramid without prompts, stating what each axis shows and what the shape implies

Draw and label a cross-section of a subduction zone from memory

Analyse the atmospheric and oceanic controls on climate zones and explain the difference between weather and climate with examples

Describe the water cycle and evaluate human impacts on river regimes and groundwater

Classify biomes by temperature and precipitation and link each to a soil and vegetation profile

Practise reading thematic maps and choropleth shading to identify spatial patterns and anomalies

Explain demographic transition theory and apply it to two contrasting countries using real indicators

Evaluate the causes and consequences of rural-to-urban migration and of urban growth in a named city

Interpret age-sex pyramids and dependency ratios to draw three justified conclusions per pyramid

Identify the strengths and limits of at least four demographic data sources, including census and registration data

Compare agricultural systems by intensity, scale, and technology, and link each to its environmental footprint

Explain the location factors for primary, secondary, and tertiary activity and apply them to a named industrial region

Evaluate the social and environmental costs of resource extraction and energy transition using two case studies

Describe global trade flows and explain one trade bloc or agreement in terms of costs and benefits

Explain the causes and spatial patterns of uneven development using at least three indicators and their limitations

Compare the aims and instruments of two development policies or aid approaches and judge their recorded outcomes

Analyse the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of sustainability in a named regional context

Practise interpreting tables of development indicators and flag where a single indicator misleads

Synthesise physical and human content into full answers that integrate at least two scales of analysis

Complete a full past-paper-style paper under exam timing and mark it strictly against the published criteria

Diagnose your three weakest recurring errors and rewrite those answers to the standard required

Practise structuring answers with a clear introduction, developed argument, and evidence-based conclusion

Condense the whole syllabus into a two-page revision sheet of definitions, models, and case-study facts

Rehearse case-study recall by naming location, scale, key figures, and outcome for six case studies from memory

Redo the three weakest question types from week 7 and confirm improvement against the same rubric

Run a final timed section under exam conditions and review timing and command-word accuracy
