About this paper
A Sir Adnan one-liner compilation headed '5 YEARS PMS GK PAST PAPERS / ONE-LINER (PPSC/FPSC NEW TREND 2025-26)' from the monster-data 'PMS SCREENING 2026 GK UPDATED' pack. All 91 printed items are published here in the standard MCQ format with verified answers and explanations; the source prints answers only, so the 3 distractors per item are authored under Anas's 2026-10-28 single-format decision and optionsSource is 'authored'. The booklet numbers its items 1-60 then 70-100: numbers 61-69 do not appear in the booklet at all (verified on the rendered page 5), so printedNo is retained and published ids are renumbered 1-91. No item was dropped and no answer corrected; 4 items carry NOTE flags (Q4 climate wording, Q13 Peary dispute, Q31 sugar-ranking variability, Q75 hockey's unofficial national-sport status).

Source & verification
Built by GK360 from verified bank questions — every answer rechecked before publishing. Where the source printed no options, the answer options were prepared by GK360; the questions and correct answers are the verified originals.
Questions
No. It is a Sir Adnan one-liner compilation headed '5 YEARS PMS GK PAST PAPERS'. It is published as paperType 'recall-list', never as a full official paper, and no single exam year is claimed (year is null).
The booklet prints items numbered 1-60 and then 70-100. Numbers 61-69 are absent from the booklet itself, confirmed on the rendered page, so 91 items were printed and all 91 are published; nothing was invented to fill the gap.
The booklet prints each question with its answer only and no options. Under Anas's 2026-10-28 single-format decision, the 3 distractors per item are authored so the set works in the standard MCQ practice engine; optionsSource is 'authored'.
No answer was corrected. Four items carry NOTE flags explaining loose or disputed wording: the 1.5°C climate target, Peary's disputed North Pole claim, the year-dependent sugar-producer ranking, and hockey as the conventional (not officially declared) national sport.
