You can do it with job. Its gud that u r a lecturer, means u can give time to studies. Start studying frm now seriously. Give proper time regularly from now, around 4 hours daily. And you will make it in 8 months. See course outlines and past papers and choose subjects of your choice. Dont even wait for subject finalization, start from compulsories. Get the books and start now.

@saima

CSS is not such exam which demand that u should leave all other activites of life and only studies. Only techniques are essential to excel in compititive exam. In my view, u can easily manage ur studies alongwith job. In our batch, mabout 70% csps have job exprience. So they manage their studies alongwith their job.

In css, time management and techniques are very important.
Which subjects u want to opt? Then sought opinion of seniors about ur choice of subjects.
Go through syllabus. Also study thread TIPS OF GOLDEN ARENA.

Go through my posts in my profile. if u feel any problem, u r welcum for help.

Best of Luck

to having a job and perparing for CSS isnt a difficult thing many of serving CSP were doing job while preparing for the CSS and they are succesful to pass the examination, beacuse this is phase of life for everyone where we all are serching for the better options for our life. however CSS is much about the time managment, for CSS you just need to study a 7 to 9 hours, after job it is managable and doable. you have to just make your time table which suits you. try to manage the things accoring to preferences, (i.e subjects, and area of your weakness). however just remeber one thing i saw many peoples how study 9 A.M to 9 P.M but they exaust all their three chance and others are just study 8 hours and they are succesfull. the thing is just to hit on right target. make time table after your job, after 9 to 5 you have much to time prepare[/B]

it is a common problem with new aspirents however very easy to solve, just make time table with[B][COLOR="Indigo"] three subjects per day[/COLOR][/B], however its better to [B][COLOR="indigo"]start with complasary subjects first (till you got rythm)[/COLOR][/B] however, if you think you are somehow to work on your [COLOR="indigo"][B]engish profeciency then place it on top priority[/B][/COLOR], [B]read dawn daily and try to write an eassy or a pragraph daily[/B], however other subjects may given time accordingly, as per your daily time table, these things will look easy to you after a 15 to 20 days of study, however first rule is [B][COLOR="indigo"]do not take tension for huge syllabus once you got rythm it is doable.[/COLOR][/B]

In CSS, two types of study should be done;

1. Intensive study

2. Extensive Study

First start prepration from intensive study.... For it u adopt method as i mentioned below.

Afte that u should which u want to prepare more.

But remember one thing in css more knowledge is a dangerous thing.

As excess kills success. No doubt knowledge is importent in this exam but knowledge should be according to the requirement of papers.

Time management is more important during prepration and during exam.

ALLAH clearly mention in Surah Al- Imranh,

"Allah never wastes any ones labour that be a man or woman"



For high scoring in any subject, Following points should b kept in mind.





1. Selection of material according to requirement of paper.



2. Make files of ur notes. Ur material should b in photocopy form not in book form. The reason behind this is that it will help u in revising material in a very short time before and during exam.

As during papres, there is no gap between papers. If sb cram his material very efficiently during his prepration and he remained unable to revise it near and during exam. That person can not achieve maxmum fruit of his efficient prepration. So planned his material in a managed way to revise it in short time.



3.Make diagram, graphics whereevere it is possible.



4. Write statistics where it is possible



5. Use headings and sub- headings



6. Use pen instead of ballpoint in paper.



7.Writing of headings and sub-headings should b different from main stuff.



8. Give some space between Heading and start of paragraph.



9. u should cram objectives of all papers. Take objective question very seriously. Only objective question will raise ur score from 40 to 50 marks. It is essential to gain at least 16 marks out of 20 marks.



In EDS, u should score 40 out of 50 marks in objective question.



10. Now u follow this technique:



u see papers of al subjects from 1971 to date.

u should form 3 bundles of questions.



1: Most repeated 20 questions



2: FIve most repeated questions



3: Five most repeated questions



First bundle 20 questions will cover 80% paper



2nd bundle alongwith first will cover 88% paper



3rd bundle alongwith above two will cover upto 93% paper INSHALLAH



Now first prepare first bundle, then 2nd. If u find time then prepare 3rd one.

ur al material should b in the form of files not in book shape. Each question photocopy should b separated from other that wil create easiness in revising material near and during exam. Wen u prepared one question, also prepare its short key. Also make files of keys of each subject.



Formation of keys is vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvery important.





11. U should give proper time to each question in paper. Divide the time according to each question. Let say there r 4 subjective questions and one objective.



U divide the time in this way;

Total time 180 mints



Time to select questions which u solve 10 mints

Time to revise paper at the end 5 mints



Time for objective 30 mints



Time for each subjective question 33 mints





So time for one subjective question is 33 mints. U futher divide this time in this way, 28 + 5



U make a short outline just like essay paper at the end of answer sheet for each question. 5 mints time u will give to make this short outline. By doing this ur hand and nerves will take a short rest during making short outline.



U have only 28 mints to write. During this time u can only write planned material.



Write relevant material. B careful in this regard. IF u took 17 marks in one question, 10 in 2nd, 8 in 3rd and 6 marks in 4th question. In final u got 41 marks. It is not a good approach.



U follow this technique,

U took 15 marks in first one, 13 in 2nd, 11 in 3rd and 10 in 4th one, u got 49 marks. So dont give time of one question to other.

Tips about diagrams and statistics
 
When u see aquestion, u will observr that it is possible to make any diagram, graphics. e.g;

If question is about pak and afghan relations, In this situation, u will the graphics of pak and afghanistan.

If question is about middle east, form ghraphics of countries of middle east.

If question is about CARS, form graphics of these counties.

Potential of central Asian states? in this q u write statics in this way,

Oil; 20 billon barrel initajikistan
gas ; u can write any aprox. amount

coal; 79 tonns

It is not essential u will write accurate statics. U write only aprox. statics

Take another example i attempted essay on pak war on terror and its impact on our psyche , socio-economic , polictcal front.
in this essay i wrote figures

social front.

poverty increasd by 30%. This 30% is statistics

Crime increased by 20 %
Economic front

35 bn doller fly to abroad as aresult of terrorism

mention aprox. population of country in respective question
