A request to seniors
 

AoA
Given the complexity of regional and international affairs and the uncertainity that entails the paper, current affairs has been giving me nightmares.
I have been reading newspappers, JWT and Contemporary affairs since March. I have developed quite a good understanding of internal, regional and international issues that are of critical importance. For example, Baloch insurgency, energy crisis, militancy, Af-pak, Pak-india and unrest in ME etc.
But i feel difficulty in organizing and remebering such huge chunks of information, as many aspirants would definitely do.
I request my worthy fellows and respected seniors to comment on how to tame this monster of CA. Taimoor Gondal, drvalentino, Hamza Salick and maliasghar are specially requested to give some tips.
Thanks in anticipation.

just keep on reading....
fix some 15 days in early January 2014 and go through all the Contemporary Affairs articles to write down bullet point from important articles related to important [COLOR="Blue"][B][U]ISSUES[/U][/B][/COLOR].
CA and ESSAY is best attempted when it carries one's own opinion with a garnishing of fact and figures. Those facts and figures would be provided by you in the paper with the help of those[COLOR="Blue"][B][U] BULLET POINTS[/U][/B][/COLOR] that you would have copied from Contemporary affairs.
just keep on reading and make your own point of view about different issues.you don't have to write it because you can't write every argument especially when you are not even sure that the issue for which are preparing is even going to be asked about or not.
That's my piece of advice.That's how i did it this year and that how i am going to do this next year as well :vic :vic :vic

can any one please tell me which website to consult for authentic statistics? like pakistan-india trade,import export percent?GDP values etc?

Dear you can resolve this conundrum issue by ameliorating your writting skills.
