Default Tips

Hi Everyone


1. Read DAWN everyday. read the front and back pages of DAWN, its pages about the International Affairs and its EDITORIAL pages. remember, u have to read DAWN religiously! u may skip other subjects, u can skip ur meals but not DAWN!

2. Then after reading the articles on the Editorial Page of DAWN, select any one or two articles n write their summaries IN YOUR OWN WORDS. do it every day. DO IT AS RELIGIOUSLY AS U READ DAWN.

2. Then i think that Exploring the World of English is also a pretty f9 book as far as CSS is concerned. Add to it the book, "Improve your English" by J.S. Bright and B.R.Mullick. it's a very good book for vocabulary, idioms, pair of words as well as sentence correction.

3. As far as vocabulary is concerned, memorize the 35,00 word list from BARRON's SAT. although 3500 may sound big but still it's much easier than memorizing even a POCKET DICTIONARY.

4. Read either often or even ocassionally novels. In the beginning u can read those cheap "CHAALU" novels .....by Sidney Sheldon but personally i would go for novels by Jeffery Archer and John Grisham.

I think as far as English is concerned, these tips are more than sufficient......

N YES......one thing u MUST need for CSS......is DETERMINATION. nothing else, not even intelligence or the aptitude for CSS but DETERMINATION......just determination to work hard is the key to success in not only CSS but every other field.

Those people who tend to brag about having a certain aptitude and INTELLECT for CSS r nothing else but BULL-SHITTERS.....EVERY PERSON CAN DO IT....what u need is just HARD WORK N DETERMINATION!
