Mediha Mohyuddin (1st Position-FSP)
...............scored 135
The books that i thought best were as follows:
1) for political philosohy... Judd Harmond (history of political thought)
2) Mazhar-ul-Haq (political science)... mind u this is just a BASIC BA text, and once u are done with this u have to build on things.
Now, my way of studying was this... since i had done my BA in political science too, i was well acquainted with Mazhar-ul-Haq, and the other, Mohammad Sarwar i think.. anyways, once u thoroughly go though those books, start building on the topics with citation of REAL LIFE political examples.. eg, if in the political system of the US there has been a problem in the election of president, you must cite an example, like that of the recent eletion of President Bush, who won the vote, but lost the popular vote.
I think, u have to have a GOOD understanding of political structures, and then build on them with examples and have your own opinion about things.
