IGCSE Geography (0460) Question(s)

Hey guys.

So I will be taking the IGCSE geography and I'm looking through available past papers and I have a dilemma....

In paper 2, it states that a "1:50000 Survey Map Extract is enclosed with this question paper" but in the file there is no map to be found (yes I have checked in the insert paper as well. No luck). So question: what am I missing????

Here's the particular paper in question (actually this is the case for every single paper 2)

Never mind guys I already figured it out. As it turns out, Cambridge cannot release the map extract because of copywrite concerns. Here's my next question though: Can anyone here give me a rough idea on what to expect? (like is the map extract gonna be like a Satellite image, a google map image, or something else entirely?)

NamChanachon I've been in the same situation, and let me tell you everything I know

so yes, Cambridge doesn't give out the map extracts but you can try asking your teacher ? teachers have access to some Cambridge sites that can help you

for the maps, try to be familiar with keys, for instance what this symbol means or where the rivers are etc.
For a visual; google the term 'Ordnance Survey Maps'

This is exactly what you should be expecting, Cambridge brings OS maps.
Good-luck and wish me luck! My paper 2 exam is coming up x

Thx for the advice! I followed your advice and lo and behold, I'm saved! So thank you very much. Also, I'm a private Candidate so I don't have any teachers to ask :p
