A 1hr 45min, 75-mark exam, Cambridge IGCSE Geography Paper 2 (0460) tests five human topics – Populations, Urban, Development, Economies, and Resources – worth 36% of your IGCSE. This guide, last updated May 2026, fixes the three biggest mistakes my students make: describing DTM stages without named country examples, confusing push vs pull factors, and evaluating strategies without a supported conclusion.

What’s inside (28 pages):

All five topics:
Topic 6 – Changing Populations
Topic 7 – Changing Towns & Cities
Topic 8 – Development
Topic 9 – Changing Economies
Topic 10 – Resource Provision

Key features:

P-E-E-E framework (Point–Evidence–Explain–Evaluate) for human geography extended responses

Levels-based mark scheme decoded (Level 1–3)

Command word decoder (Describe, Explain, Evaluate, Suggest, Compare, Justify)

Worked model answers with examiner commentary

LIC/MIC/HIC framework explained with country examples

DSE (Detailed Specific Example) checklist – ensure you have named locations, dates, and data

Predicted topics 2027–2029 with confidence ratings

Key graph skills – population pyramids, choropleth maps, scatter graphs, divided bar graphs, triangular graphs

How I use this resource: Students memorise one DSE per high-priority subtopic (population policy, migration flow, urban area, development gap country, TNC, tourist area, food/energy management) with specific data. They practise the P-E-E-E structure weekly and always include an evaluative conclusion – not just a summary.

Suitable for: Cambridge IGCSE Geography 0460 (Paper 2 – Human Geography; compulsory for all candidates).
