Engineering background has nothing to do with both these subjects, you can opt any one of them, Islamic history has no technicalities, psychology has some topics of biology but even then it is manageable for non-science students, one advantage of psychology is that it never remained low-scoring and one thing more, you will have 5-7 days gap for psychology so easy to revise.

I have never seen such a book as cover all the topics of paper 1 and 2, I used notes of my academy for paper 2, so the only famous book mostly recommended and used is Professor Mazhar ul Haq's, but it lack some of the topics of paper 1 and most of the topics of paper 2!

The books I have mentioned earlier are enough for this paper, instead of focusing more on collection of books, the best way is to read one or two books for one subject and then make your own notes out of them.

The umbrella term will be good governance and you are supposed to prepare every aspect of this topic, other than this topic, there will be a list of topics that are likely to come in coming exam, but it will be better to predict them in December as it will be the right time, for the time being focus on democracy, energy crisis, education system in Pakistan, clash of civilizations/Human rights (Burma massacre), terrorism-exit strategy in particular, Institutional disharmony, Economy of Pakistan, Women rights.
You need to prepare these topics from essay as well as current affairs’ perspective.

1. Need for Good governance in Pakistan

In this topic, more specifically asked about good governance in Pakistan and further division is, its need in Pakistan, you can go this way, here is a short outline to give you a frame of work…

1.Intro: In intro straight away tell that good governance is important for Pakistan, for this purpose mention the areas which are needed to be improve via making governance better, and what if could be the drawbacks if governance is not being improved……(no details of definition and explanation of good governance here…)

2. What is good governance? (Definition and explanation including components of governance)

3. Dimensions of Governance:
(Who is responsible for governance issues……?)

4. State of governance in Pakistan VS problems created as a result of bad governance (here u will explain the whole topic in detail)
Political: The systems and procedures for making governance better and the capacity of governments, hierarchal system of government and step down approach (how to implement governance at district, provincial and national level)
Institutional: Harmony among different state institutions for good governance
Economic: Relationship between better economy and good governance (at each stage you are supposed to present the case of Pakistan
Social: Crimes, law and order, social injustice, poverty etc

Well, for Islamic history follow the previous posts please….if you want to skip geography, it is a wise decision, both Islamic history and psychology could be opted, but better for you to go for the subject towards you have more interest-inclination, psychology is a 30% more technical than Islamic history but in Islamic history you have to cram dates etc, so with this comparison the decision will be yours at the end.

For idioms, I would suggest you to take notes of NOVA, there is a collection of more than 500 idioms, the website address is mentioned above, or otherwise make your own list of idioms following past 10-20 years papers, this option will give you more benefit, for antonyms/synonyms follow GRE book, or just try to improve it through reading etc, as you can’t cram all the books for the 10 marks MCQ’s.You can use idioms in Essay and paragraph, but not at all in précis, until and unless they are themselves mentioned in the actual précis paragraph or 2 to 3 word idiom that is truly presenting a situation and best suited in the précis.

For Islamic history notes, please consult academy’s management, contact details are there on the website.
