Study order
Learn the topics in this order. Each one shows the marks it adds to a 70-mark paper on top of the topics above it, from the 16 current-syllabus papers (March 2023, Semester I, morning to June 2026, Semester II, evening). An OR choice counts once. These papers let you choose which questions to attempt, so the running total stops at 70 once the topics you know can fill a paper.

The other 0.6 marks of a typical paper sit in parts that mix several topics, or none of the named ones.
Pick one of each pair
The first topic only comes up as the OR choice against the second, so one of the two is enough.
Also asked, but adding no marks on top of the topics above: Natural-resource case studies.
