We are going to start Geography Paper 1. Upload your notes topic wise and enhance your knowledge by reading the others'. In this way, we shall meet two main benefits: Firstly we have to prepare a question to upload, secondly we can judge our knowledge by comparing the notes of others.

Here is the syllabus of Geography Paper 1.

PHYSICAL AND GENERAL GEOGRAPHY

Elements of Weather and Climate
Insolation and Atmospheric Temperature. Global Radiation and Heat Balance. Atmospheric Pressure and Winds. Humidity and Precipitation. Air Masses. Fronts and Atmospheric Disturbances. Classification of Climate and Climatic Regions.


Landforms
Major landforms, Rocks : origin, formation and classification. Internal Structure of the Earth. Earth quakes and Volcancity. Weathering. Mass Wasting. Erosion and Deposition. Cycle of Erosion. Landforms produced by Underground and Ground Water. Wind and Glaciers.


Oceans
Continental Margins and the Sea Floor. Distribution of Temperature and Salinity. Movements of the Ocean Water: Waves. Currents and Tides.


Study of Maps
Types of maps: Topographical Maps, Aerial Photographs. Weather Maps. Map Projections: classification and choice of projections. Merits and Demerits of Cylindrical. Conical and Zenithal Projections. Diagrams. graphs and Distribution Maps based on Statistical Data.


So start to study LANDFORMS, the topics are

1. Internal Structure of Earth

2. Concept of Rocks

3. Plate Tectonics

4. Volcanism

5. Earthquakes

6. Weathering Processes

7. Cycle Of Erosion

8. Concept Of Rivers

9. Karst LandForms

10.Glaciers

11. The Work Of Wind

Physical geography by De Blij

Book of Sarfraz Bajwa (can't recall its name right now)

These are vital for the preparation and they cover almost all the topics.In addition, there are two books of geography by Jahangir Sons. They come handy in the last days as they contain outlines of all the topics as well.
Don't confuse yourself by collecting several books. A dedicated study from two or three books could help you more than piling up books which you can't study simultaneously!

Anum, Unfortunately for MCQ's you will have to go through the text books. Notes can work wonders for essay type questions.

Try solving as many past papers as you can especially the MCQ section. A few MCQ's do repeat.
