don't risk it when compulsory question can come from any section

 

[Mussab ul haq]

Also, how many reasons atleast should there be in a 14 mark question for most questions?

Has there been 10 mark question of nawaz sharif or benazir ? If so can you give me some examples?

edit : I have learned enough to attempt 7 marks but 10 marks looks a little tough considering that my reasons would come short.

7-8 points are enough stated that you elaborate them good enough depending on the question.

yes.... but just make sure that your answer is not very long it should be brief covering all the points along with the extra ones included.

Thanks alot for the information. Trying to aim for A*
Though I sure hate the ratta of history. Would have preferred things which make sense like physics and chemistory.

I am having a confusion in urdu pastpaper. How is the markscheme of translation done these days? its 40 marks if I count the marks in markscheme given the pointers and stuff but the actual translation is of 20 marks. So is it like in 40 ways the question can be marked or what?

 

[Hamnah Zahoor]

yes in marking schemes 40 points are given so that it can be checked that student should have written minimum 20 points from them.

 

[Mussab ul haq]

So you can easily secure 20 marks in it. Does this mean that having mediocre translation is normal? Also, this is like a reaccuring thing right? the 40 marks? Also, if i just attempt the recent 3 year questions, is it actually possible to get a* in History? Also for Islamiyat, can you give me some pointers on what to base my question on? I usually just try to jam all the related information that I have and add a little extra info if they are somehow related and just write 2-3 references atleast for a 10 mark question while 1 reference is enough for a 4 mark.

•For history, I prefer read and write's topical past papers with mark scheme. Basically, all the main pointers have been laid out which makes it really easy for you to chalk out a cohesive plan on how to tackle the question confidently. Also you can look up source based questions for paper 1 as they are crucial, too.
• For Geography, I would recommend you read the whole book and make pointers. Well, if you are running out of time, I recommend you to buy Mrs. Talat Rizvi's topical past papers with solved key points. It basically gives you an insight on how to answer the question. Moreover, I'd suggest you buy topical solved past papers and solve them using the key points. Keep an elaborating stance while answering them.
Do get them checked by your teacher or tutor as they can better guide you.
• For Islamiyat I suggest you to use Iftikhar-Ul-Haq's book merged with Mastering O'Level Islamiyat. (I don't know if that's available in markets, you can find it in pdf form on the Internet!) Also, memorize ample references and quotations as you'll need them to prove the points you raise.
Remember to take breaks while studying so you don't stress yourself out!
Good luck!😊
