thanks. can you also share how i should structure my answers. i am so confused. i just need a C grade in this crappy subject

 

[Addie Zak]

thanks. can you also share how i should structure my answers. i am so confused. i just need a C grade in this crappy subject

Oh getting C will be easy because of geography cuz its mostly general knowledge and you have to solve 3 q out of 5. My tip is if you are stuck in some particular q of geography that askes you effects/causes eg, what is the effect of siltation on dams, repeat the question and apply it to every topic in the syllabus. For example, I go through Topgraphy, nothing, I go through climate, nothing, I go through water resources, OH... HEP output gets limited.

In History, there is nothing much you can do if you have bad prep. however, if you are really struggling but know something about a question, just keep thinking about its effect for example. British came to India for spices. Why? Cuz industrial revolution? why India? Cuz they were unable to go into east indies and wanted strategic location. Oh why? They wanted to spread there superior culture and because mughals allowed them. Oh Why..... and the chain goes on. I would suggest you to this in 7 mark q if you are struggling but know only 1 to 2 points. Hope it helps. Moreover, in 4 marks you can attempt to write general things.... for example you know the whole set is from sec 1 cuz the 7 and 4 marks are about sir syed and reformers. Now the 4 marks asks you about nana sahib... you can then write general things for example he fought against the brit etc. this will get you 2-3 marks or even 4 if you give 4 distinct point. Hope it helps

 

[Addie Zak]

Just remeber to give it all and try not to go blank.. Write anything even if you don't know nothing cuz there is no negative marking. Hope it helpes

Do past papers. But instead of solving them, due to less time, write and understand their marking scheme as that is what is important

[Red_Haired_Shanks]

Addie Zak can you tell me about the constitution making?

I can't understand from the book.

 

[MightyDragon43]

Can anybody plz tell me how much i am supposed to prepare from section 3 history if my main goal is to only attempt the q2 and q3 Cz there is a chance that something from section 3 may come as a compulsory q1.

I also have the same game plan but I think so that a general reading would be enough.

I haven't done much myself.

Just did ( Governer generals and Presidents, Ayub Khan, Yahya and Seperation of E.P and ZAB)

 

[Addie Zak]

Addie Zak can you tell me about the constitution making?

I can't understand from the book.

There were many attempts to make constitution until a stable one until 1973. Thay include 1949, 52, 56, 62 and finally 73

So we discuss 1949 one the objectives resolution, here you tell what were they clauses and why it was rejected ( insufficiently iuslamic, east pak opp, provincial political parties etc) Then Bogra sahab ''presented an amended version of it. Then we tell constitution made by Muhammad Ali at gunpoint, lol, that was implemented on march 1956, u tell its clauses including one unit policy.... then u tell it was abrogated. Then in 1962 cuz of basic democracies, ayub khan was able to make a constitution, you discuss its clauses... then finally in 73 Zulfikar made a constitution, u discuss its clauses. hope it helped. asked q to clarify
