GENERAL PAPER

GP is a challenging subject that requires students to be well-informed about current affairs and to be able to articulate their thoughts clearly and persuasively.

 

Here are some key aspects of GP academics:

​

• Essay Writing: A major component of GP is essay writing. Students are required to write essays on a variety of topics, often related to current events or social issues. These essays require students to demonstrate their ability to think critically, analyze information, and construct well-reasoned arguments.

• Comprehension: GP also includes a comprehension component, where students are given passages to read and then answer questions about. This tests their ability to understand and interpret complex texts.

• Current Affairs: A strong understanding of current affairs is essential for success in GP. Students are expected to be aware of major global, regional, and local events and to be able to discuss them intelligently.

• Critical Thinking: GP places a strong emphasis on critical thinking. Students are encouraged to question assumptions, evaluate evidence, and form their own opinions on various issues.

• Communication Skills: Effective communication is crucial in GP. Students need to be able to express their ideas clearly and persuasively, both in writing and in discussions.

 

GP is a demanding subject, but it is also an enriching one. It equips students with valuable skills that will serve them well in university and beyond. By studying GP, students develop their critical thinking, communication, and analytical skills, and gain a deeper understanding of the world around them.
