>Do bring sweets with you in order to maintain your sugar level during paper; specially the second paper (2-5p.m) needs lots of sweets because sugar level is down in the evening time. And your brain and fingers won’t work properly due to shortage of sugar level in your body.

15. During preparation make outlines of important headings and points of every topic, because these outline will help you a lot in revision during short time period which you get between papers due to tough date sheet.

You need 120 marks in total to pass these three papers collectively.(e.g you got 20 marks in everyday science, 50 marks in pak-affairs and 50 marks in current affairs, so in total its 120 marks, so you have passed collectively all the general knowledge section, your everyday science paper is considered passed on the basis of collective marks system)
