About Pakistan Geography MCQs
Physical geography questions cover the Indus and its tributaries, the doabs of Punjab, dams and barrages, the Thar, Cholistan and Kharan deserts, the plateaus of Balochistan and Potohar, mountain ranges such as the Kirthar, Sulaiman and Salt Range, and passes such as Lowari and Khyber. Questions on the coast deal with the Indus Delta, its mangrove forests, ports and historic towns such as Thatta.
Human and economic geography questions cover population and cities, provinces and their boundaries, borders with neighbouring countries, minerals and their locations, livestock breeds, crops and forests. Some questions also deal with border agreements, such as the boundary agreement between Pakistan and China, and with protected areas and national parks. Because population and city figures change with each census, check which census year a question refers to.
