[QUOTE=Maaz Ahmed COT;566938]Paper 2 was total out of course except 2 questions.You can not expect good marks when u don't know whether the content of your answer is up to the mark or not.This is iniquity on the part of FPSC as we prepared the course and it was more of a current affairs paper than geography.[/QUOTE]
how it was out of course except question no one? All the important topics of geo2 have been asked in this paper. Q3. population distribution Q4. steel industry: a major topic of industrial and economic geography Q5: Now don't tell me that an aspirant having geography has not prepared the physical features of pakistan or he does not know how to draw a map of pakistan. Q6: what is the question no.6? Q7: fresh water problem: in the light of indus water treaty and water conflict between pak and India. |

[QUOTE=FERoZekAkar;567056]9. geostrophic winds
11. none of these ( the deepest trench is located in western pacific ocean)[/QUOTE] Its convection cell [URL]http://www.ehow.com/about_6546597_definition-convection-cell.html[/URL] btw weren't Kalabagh, the Fresh Water Question and the Energy Crisis of Pakistan related? Like all of em had mixed points. any comments? |
According to indus water treaty, Indus, chenab and jhelum were alloted to pakstan. Besides, it was decided that Marala Head could be used by the Indians provided its flow must not go down below 52000 cusecs. But Indian is building dams on these rivers, causing water scarcity in pakistan these days.
