    Chemistry: MCQs!

    Re: Chemistry: Macromolecules It's very common how these things get muddled up. The test for oxygen is that it relights a glowing splint, while hyrdogen produces a 'pop' sound on a lighted splint. If you write "hydrogen produces a 'pop' sound on a glowing splint" you'll get the answer wrong! :P...

    Chemistry: MCQs!

    Re: Chemistry: Macromolecules Waalaikumassalam! Actually, I think C would be the answer since a glowing splint would have been used rather than a lighted one for oxygen. Also, I'm fairly sure oxygen can't burn on its own. I'm not so sure, but that's what I think.. Well, this question is...

    Any advice for Urdu and English paper?

    Yeah, same here. Only one student in my school got an A* last year, most good students got a A but a majority of them got a B or a C and some even D's and E's. Previously I thought it would be easy to get an A/A* but given the marks I'm getting in school (it's usually 70-85) it might be very...

    Any advice for Urdu and English paper?

    Yeah, in English learn the new paper pattern (particularly paper 2 has been made easier), there's a specimen paper here and on the CIE official website. Also, learn how to write good compositions - there's a good book called 'Cambridge English Revision Guide' (or something similar) which if read...

    Pakistan Studies and Islamiat.

    I studied from FNM and Yasmin Malik and got A*. Yasmin Malik covers most things already in FMN, but it's more shorter and concise. I think it'd be better if you stick to only one or two books as it might be time-consuming and more difficult to study from more than that.

    Pakistan Studies, Islamiyat and Urdu: Post your doubts here!

    Re: HISTORY Rare questions !! Studying section 3 is just a waste of time.. maybe that's just me though. I primarily focused on section 3 about 2 weeks prior to the exam last May thinking it was really important, but the section 1/2 questions that came in the paper were relatively easier and I...

    Islamiyat help!

    Just read the revision checklist from here, and for the 2011 syllabus see this. If it isn't there, then you shouldn't have to study it. But it it's there, then it's important that you do cover it. About Imamat.. my Islamiat teacher told me to just through Imam Hassan, Imam Hussain and Imam...

    Maths P1.. HELP needed!!

    For Q1, just differentiate y and then use the chain rule. dx/dt is 0.03. y = (5x+4)^0.5 dy/dx = 0.5 *(5x+4)^-0.5 * (5) dy/dx = 2.5(5x+4)^-0.5 dy/dt = dy/dx * dx/dt dy/dt = 2.5(5(1)+4)^-0.5 * 0.03 dy/dt = 2.5(9)^-0.5 * 0.03 dy/dt = 0.025

    English Language

    I think it should be mentioned too, there isn't really any harm in mentioning it (as long as you don't waste your time, just multiply the number of lines in your composition with the approximate number of words per line).

    Pakistan Studies and Islamiat.

    To me that is far more than enough.. I think you should stick to just one or two books in each though since you might get confused if you study from many of them. Also just a heads up that many of Redspots' answers are known to be wrong (by that, I mean they don't provide quality answers) so...

    Islamiyat Help Needed

    Yeah, I think that answer is actually quite a good one, just be sure to describe the battles too. Learning the battles for all 4 Khalifas is important but you don't need to know the full details of each (just 3-5 lines of each will suffice, like when/where it took place, what the outcome was...

    Attention people!!!!

    How confident are you that you'll get at least a C from D? If you feel that your paper definitely deserves a better grade than D, then go for a recheck because a D is kind of a bad grade. The same thing happened to me with my June 2010 Islamiat paper - I was so sure I would get an A but got a...

    O' Level Result Booklet ( Oct/Nov 2010 )

    I got A* in Islamiat (I only gave this in the Oct/Nov session), I'd also like to thank everyone here who provided notes for Islamiat because I read most of them and they greatly helped. :)
