i think main focus to follow the syllabus should be on kelly but to read bajwa in order to get more detail on those topics is like must .kelly is very brief and at times doesnt cover all the main points .

Is it important to learn about the reforms of the Mughal emporers?
I mean even though they are in the syllabus, I have never seen a question in the past papers regarding the reforms of Akbar or Babur or any other mughal emporer.

Babur, akbar, etc. are not in the syllabus

In pak.studies do we have to learn about the history of the languages( scripts,early poets etc) or should we simply concentrate on their promotions after 1947?
Thanks in advance.

we have to know the History of Urdu only. we have to know that why it was chosen as national language and what are the advantages and disadvantages of urdu as a national language and there is no need to study the history of regional languages only we have to know about their promotion since 1947

I've got a question about Islamiat . Which book is the best and most according to syllabus. I've heard that the book by David Thomas is good but I have it and it's too short. Currently i'm studying from the book by Iftikhar-ul-Haq. Should I substitute it for Farkhanda Noor?
All comments and opinions will be welcome.
