AOA everyone i am veterinarian done DVM and now want to do css like all you guyz i have selected some subjects as i have no background of any of these subjects most of them opted by me have 1 thing common which is that they have less syllabus so i can prepare them in short time of 5 months but i have still 1 subject remaining i am confused so which i should opt??? confused btw Agriculture & Forestory , Gender studies, Town planning and urban Manangement Plz senior advice me

My other optionals are IR, I.LAW, US History, Punjabi i heard except from IR all other are scoring ones and have small syllabus comparatively but need your advice on others...........

Before FPSC brought reforms in CSS exam, Agriculture and Forestry were two separate subjects but now they have been merged and there is a possibility that they may have become hard to tackle and their syllabi may be lengthy, so I recommend you to go for other options which are Gender Studies and Town Planing. I myself have opted Gender Studies, and it is a good subject, and it may help you in preparation of the essay too, because of the nature of the topics it contains so I suggest you to opt it.

As far as the IR is concerned it is also a good subject in group one, and if someone has not studied any of the subject from gp-1 in their degrees then IR is the best option to go with. But I tell you a weird thing that I am computer. science grad. but still I have opted IR due to various benefits that it yields which help us in the preparation of other subjects.

So the decision is up to you.

Mate which book are you using for gender studies ? How much cramming is involved in this subject ?
