About this paper
A 100-item Sir Adnan mock test headed 'PMS 2026 GK MOCK2 / MCQs-100 (ANSWER KEY IN END)' from the monster-data 'PMS SCREENING 2026 GK UPDATED' pack. 97 items are published here in the standard MCQ format with verified answers and explanations; the source prints options with an answer key at the end, so optionsSource is recorded as 'printed'. Printed Q14 is dropped (no verifiable 'Naya Pakistan Solar' flagship programme), Q54 is dropped (Renala Khurd, 1925, predates Warsak as a hydropower station) and Q81 is dropped (the correct first woman governor, Ra'ana Liaquat Ali Khan, is not among the options). Seven keyed answers are corrected to the standard answer and flagged in keyFlag.

No. It is a Sir Adnan mock test headed 'PMS 2026 GK MOCK2', prepared for PMS Screening 2026. It is published as paperType 'mock', never as a past paper, and the year 2026 is the booklet's mock label, not a claimed exam session.
Printed Q14 (a 'Naya Pakistan Solar' flagship programme that could not be verified), Q54 (Warsak as the first hydropower project, predated by Renala Khurd, 1925) and Q81 (first woman governor, whose correct answer Ra'ana Liaquat Ali Khan is not among the options) are dropped as unanswerable as printed, never inferred.
Yes. Every keyed answer was reconciled to the standard fact; seven were corrected (Q19 SAARC chair to Nepal, Q30 largest refinery to Cnergyico, Q50 first woman prime minister in the Muslim world to Benazir Bhutto, Q51 Citizen Portal launch to 2018, Q60 national bird to Chukar, Q66 first mobile banking to 2009, Q72 first indigenous missile programme to Hatf), each flagged in keyFlag.
No. A content-fingerprint gate (first-5 stems against 713 bank files at 0.6 token similarity) found no existing file matching 3 of the first 5 stems, so this is a new compilation, not a duplicate of Mock 1 or any other bank file.
