GCSE Geography Revision Questionnaire 1 of 4

Earlier in the year, as part of the preparation for the publication of the new Badger GCSE Grade Booster book (have I mentioned that  ?) I put a GCSE Revision Questionnaire online as a Google Form.
In this and the next three posts, I shall go through the results that came in.
