You do know if you read the marking schemes and understand the questions for what they're asking for and try to avoid any unnecessary details. (=

Answers in the Redspot books are the worst. NEVER read them. NEVER ever. Just consult the marking schemes and perhaps three different books at least. (specifically talking about Pakistan Studies, history)

Just go with the past papers and marking schemes. They're the best revision guides you can possibly have. When are you appearing?

the best way of preparing geography is to read its mark scheme over and over again.....this way ur mind will definately set like that and u will able to think like that as required in markscheme....further consult the mark scheme topic wise along with the text book ie. huma naz sethi .......I think this is the best way to prepare geography and to score higher marks ...

yup exactly ...and most of the topics are interlinked so u must prepare them simultaneously ...eg industries,trade and transport are interlinked so u must prepare them first ...similarly come agriculture and climate that are also interlinked ....so if u prepare in this way definately will u feel easy and hardly u can prepare geography in 10-15 days .....
