Make your approach analytic. Avoid cramming and shortcuts. Read Dawn News Paper Daily. Try to practice Precise writing of editorials. Dawn News Paper, The Express Tribune and Jehangir World Times are sufficient. Best of luck:))

Don't waste your time with these books. Dawn newspaper is sufficient. In addition to that you can read Jahangir world Times. In all the papers generally and in current affairs particularly you need to have an analytical approach. There is absolutely no need to cram anything. Just go through the news and try to formulate your own opinion on various issues.

kind of generalized and analytical paper
written speed and good study and knowledge would make it easier to pass...

[QUOTE=mehwishnawaz;566312]i have purchased advanced contemporary affairs by imtiaz shahid is it a good book??????[/QUOTE]

it will alone will not be effective
go for its bimonthly issues....
read tem...undertsand them...and make ur own handouts...
and JWT is also wonderfull

have a deep look and grip over national and international issues...

break the question into pieces and see wht is being asked and write according to that

reading news paper daily... and making own hand outs is best then any other book.... because the points you write by yourself will be always in your mind no matter you revise them or not
