If the questions want you to write about Greenland it will mention page and resource numbers related to Greenland in the pre-release booklet.<br /><br /><div style="width:425px;text-align:left" id="__ss_449888"><object style="margin:0px" width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://static.slideshare.net/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=greenland-extreme-environment-1212697089868168-9&rel=0"/><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"/><embed src="http://static.slideshare.net/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=greenland-extreme-environment-1212697089868168-9&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><div style="font-size:11px;font-family:tahoma,arial;height:26px;padding-top:2px;"><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/?src=embed"><img src="http://static.slideshare.net/swf/logo_embd.png" style="border:0px none;margin-bottom:-5px" alt="SlideShare"/></a> | <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/jwilkinson/greenland?src=embed" title="View Greenland on SlideShare">View</a> | <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/upload?src=embed">Upload your own</a></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6735673320157428835-7256052151042612703?l=notredamegeography.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mr Wilkinsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17924895544973357381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735673320157428835.post-20848133791787905102008-05-16T19:12:00.002+01:002008-05-16T19:18:50.331+01:00It is important to remember the exam wont all be on the pre-release booklet.
