Those who're expecting an overall 80+ report here. The purpose is to approximate competition from the province.

Other candidates domiciled in KPK are welcome to share their marks regardless of the mentioned threshold.

I am from KPK and I expect 75 marks give or take. How about you?

I would give myself between 80 and 85 based on the solved paper uploaded by a relevant group on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/YPIP2016/).

Do you have a confirmed idea as to the ratio of candidates per vacancy and total vacancies? As i have been informed, KPK had between 8 and 10 seats last year and as many as 40 candidates were interviewed against each vacancy -- which would make the ratio 1:4.

Others from KPK please contribute and post your projected scores!

M expecting b/w 68-72, plz share the whole solved paper, can't access the group.

As far as shortlisting is concerned it will depend on how many candidates get marks above the threshold which in turn depends on the overall average. For this year's threshold it will surely be higher than the previous one owing to how easier it was. If there were almost 40 candidates last year that qualified that test this year's scenario indicates more competition. lets see what the cut-off is going to be, only then we will be able to know.

Does FATA have separate quota or is it also included in KPK?

FATA and GB have an integrated quota while KPK has its own independent share according to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quota_System_in_Pakistan

Some of the answers have been disputed by people. That of Olympics for instance. It could be both 4 years (summer-summer, winter-winter) or 2 years (summer-winter)

29- The answer could be ITO, since it never existed.

Yes. There do lie some faults/occassional misleading in this list. However, only after accounting for all that you have mentioned (and a few more), i had derived my own assessment. Well, let's see what fate has in store.

How about other KPK people??
