It is said that US history is a very good subject in CSS in current days, as well scoring and not too much lengthy. I have opted it and please seniors share your scores and strategy of preparation. I have bought its books majumdar I+II, MCQs of Jahangir. Also has seen the notes of CSSFORUM and links that are given...

03. How to attempt this paper?

05. How to make its notes? (Synopsis/Detailed)
05. And please seniors share your scor?

Thanks....

01. How long it average students get it to cover.

Brother it wont take more than 2 weeks, bcuz the best part ov ths subject is tht its quiet precised

02. What about MCQS?

A person solving last 10 years mcq's can easily grasp gud marks in objective portion, but in 2011 mcq's were a bit tricky

03. How to attempt this paper?

The approach shud de neutral ones avoiding over criticism on America and appreciating its optimistic sides.

04. Does q. came in it like current affair trend?

Well Yes! since last two years the trend is been more ov current questions but tht shud not be a problem for a CSS student bcuz CCS ka student Current Affairs main Saara Din America America hi tau parhta hai. So if u re gud at current affairs ths too wont be a problem for u.

05. How to make its notes? (Synopsis/Detailed)

Well Make notes if u can, but DO MAKE Shorts notes only comprising of heading so that u can revise at the night b4 exam

05. And please seniors share your scor?

Well brother till 2010 it ws a vry gud subject, many ov ma frnds even scord 70;s nd 80's. In 2011 de scores were not very gud but still gud students got scores ov 70's even in 2011.

So if U attemot it well according to de demands ov question wd qud prep, dere r quiet high chances ov scoring gud marks.

US hist. may grant you above avg. marks.

i extracted my notes from majumdar n a website.
try to make such notes as u may nt resort to books again.
during revisions, extract headings n facts n figures in b/w empty spaces of notes.

I have opted US History too, So, I have also have question that is how to make its notes and is really it can be prepared within a week?

any subject can be prepared in a week.

but to top the list, its better n safe to do extensive n intensive study.

manage ur time, may it take 1 week or more.
