Re: The Official ‘O Levels’ Thread.

I've never had a problem with time management or memorisation so sorry can't help. Also I didn't give History/Islamiat/urdu etc

The Official ‘O Levels’ Thread.

Why did SWU translate the Quran into Persian? (7)

I have come up with two points:
1. He believed that Muslims had incomplete knowledge of the Quran and Quranic teachings so in order for Muslims to understand it completely, he translated it into Persian.

2. He believed that to create a good society, following the principles of Islam was essential so he translated it.

I find the second point a bit vague. Any help [MENTION=25983]AbbY[/MENTION]

Your 2nd point means that the Hindu customs had crept into the lives of Muslims of the sub-continent and the Muslims thought it to be right. The celebration of hindu festivals and other customs. Also, the Muslims of the sub-continent were divided into sects like shia, sunni, etc. So in order to create a society of united Muslims, he translated the Quran to create awareness among them that they are one single nation following the same religion Islam.

Anyone having problems with logic gates and/or pseudo codes and algorithms in CS can ask me. I know and understand them quite well.

Okay, time for this thread to become active once more.

I'll be having my mocks in 2 weeks, so I've started preparing.

My subjects are: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Computer Studies, English and Urdu.

I believe I can study for English and Urdu a day or two before the exam itself. So I've kept those for the end. I regularly write and read, so I guess that is good practice for English.

As for Biology, Chem, Phy and CS, I've decided to study through the entire book once again, and then I shall move on to past papers.
Question: Are 5 years worth of past papers good enough (these last 5 years, I mean)? These include both June and November, so they are 10 papers, total.

Any tips?

They'll be more than ten actually.

Yeah, they're enough.

For math, if I were you I'd do 2002 onwards given you're weak in math.

^Actually, for Math, I've been doing topical past papers for the past two months and I've covered almost every topic. Questions for each topic were from 2000-2010.

And how will they be more than ten?

Ah, I see. But I think I'll only do 10. Doing more would deprive me of time.

So, which topics should I leave and which should I study for Islamiat?
You WILL have to study most of the stuff.

Sadly, I've forgotten a lot about the syllabus and stuff, but I remember leaving Wives, Scribes, Imams etc. Just did 10 blessed companions (unmay say bhi 2 choray thay) and 4 caliphs.

I left the question (it was on a wife IIRC) on choice. That being said, I'll recommend you do atleast the important wives, Hasan Hussain, 10 blessed companions and the caliphs. Scribes etc aren't as important. Besides, I don't think they've ever given a Q2 or more than 1 Q3,4,5 on this section.

Everything else is so easy that you wouldn't even have to leave it!

I said the same.

Ended up doing 5-6 on average. 14 each for Math and Add Math though. Loved the two more than anything else!

For Geography, use Fazle Kareem Khan as your reference book but Huma Naz Sethi is best.

Hi,my CIE exams are starting off from 7th may ,I'm doing IGCSE (Not O'level,Its sort of the same thing but easier than O'level) .I'd like to know the precaution I should take as in the mistakes students often do due to you can say ignorance or anything ! The subjects I'm taking are Maths(0580),Information and Communication Technology(0417),Physics(0625),Pak Studies (I think paper 1 is 2558 I can't remember for paper 2) ,Chemistry (0620),Islamiat,Urdu-B/second language ,English second language.I'd like to know any mistake I am likely to avoid which any student could make !

PS: I have prepared for maths,chem,phy ,ICT and am on my way to finish Isl and Pak Studies

- - - Updated - - -

And my Zone is 5 incase anyone of you would like to check date sheet oh and Kindly suggest me a time-table ! :) I don't know but I can't divide time accordingly :/

- - - Updated - - -

BTW I need some guidance with questions related to angles :/ Kindly send me a link that could briefly explain the properties of Angels in a circle ,quadrilateral etc
PS:I got a maths past paper book I think its by redspot and I kind of agree with ABY on not to go with redspot,I did redspot for phy n chem and they didn't quite help,i'd suggest its better to do the past papers then do the past paper book as well :/ Because the chance of dishonesty in doing past paper is almost 0 while there is likely to be alot of dishonesty in redsport book xP
