Post Subjects selection for CSS -2017

A.o.A
As i am new to this forum, I don't know much of this,, now coming to the point!!
I am thinking of trying to prepare this exam from past two years, , but due to some domestic issues I wasn't able to go through this,, I have completed my MBA last year and now married too,, and wants to appear in 2017 exams,,, I know I don't have much of the time to prepare the whole course, ,

Now this is the request to all the deliberated members to help me in subjects selections and all,,

Plzzzz plzzzz just suggest me the most easiest and time saving subjects combination so I should start my preparation as soon as possible,,,

I'll be much much thankful to all of you, ,
Stay Blessed,,,

AOA all,
Review the syllabus for each optional you wish to select before you finally decide and select subjects you are familiar with, or have studied before.

Have a look at this link,it explains the tips and tricks of selecting optional subjects, perhaps you'd find it useful.

Happy Studying

I'd suggest you the easiest, easiest for you at least i.e. Business Administration. Following this US History, Sociology and International Law would save you the day and if you've MBA finance background go for Accounting & Auditing, you'll nail it.
But if you have already selected your subjects which I assume you had since I responded to your query very late, please let us know your subject combination
Thank you!

Default Subject selection

AoA.
Is it ok to select one subject of 100 marks (statistics) from group 2? I am confused as it says "choose subject(s) of 200 marks only". Is one only suppose to choose 2 subject of 200 marks or one subject of 200 mark or can one opt 1 subject of 100 marks as well?

If you have opted ir, why not i law instead of criminology? I law is infact a part of ir syllabus
Also psychology i know is the closest to your field but its syllabus is too long for 100 marks...rule out all other subjects in the psychology group before finalizing it
