Dear all,
Aoa.

I’m a fresh bachelors graduate who wants to appear in the css exams in 2019. However I haven’t yet started my preparations. I’m 24 years old. I plan on also doing my masters for 2 years. But i don’t know what to do first. Should I take my css and go for masters next year? I won’t be able to do justice to either because applications for masters close in december so i have to prepare for GRE this year along with CSS prep.
I could also dedicate this time purely to CSS and start my applications next year. But does the civil service allow one to leave for 2 years for masters?

Kindly help.

Note: I’m not doing masters for job security. I’m truly passionate about high education. Please advice accordingly.
