Post I agree

Yes! I agree with you. Considering the fact that syllabi of the subjects have been increased; zoology syllabus is doable as it has limited syllabus as compated to others where recommended books have also been doubled.

The syllabus of zoology and recommended books are given in the new reforms.

Punjabi which was considered safe uptill now has also been expanded to such a level where it will be difficult to cover the syllabus well in time

FPSC has played havoc with the lives of former aspirants.I appeared in Css2015 all of the papers went well except for punjabi paper.My optional were
Indo Pak history (prepared 70 %)
Socilogy (prepared 100 %)
Geography (prepared 100 %)
Punjabi (prepared 40%)
and now i cant opt sociology and geography together because of the absurd condition imposed by the FPsc i.e aspirants are only allowed to select one subject from each group having 100 marks
i cant opt history of usa and indo pak history
css was and is my dream i did my best to purse my dream i did all the hard work required to translate that dream to reality.I am Engineer by profession i even scapegoated my professional career for the cause of css. Initially,when i started preparing for css i made a plan that i would burn the mid night oil for one year and after giving my first attempt i will look for job and then i will keep on revising along with the job.
And ironically now i have to begin from the scratch Thanks to fpsc.
FPSC does not have an idea about the intensity of the blow they have caused to former aspirants.

Now i am thinking to go for
Computer Science 200
Geology 100
IndoPak history oR History of Usa 100
Muslim law and Jurisprudence 100
Sociology 100

History and zoology had 2 papers each and were of 200 marks each.
Now, both the subjects carry 100 marks each but with the syllabi of 2 papers i.e the two papers for each are merged into 1 and now each part have 50 marks.

Agriculture and forestry were two different subjects of 100 marks each and these are also merged into 1 with each section of paper carrying 50 marks.

Now, its hell arduous, but, what can I do. I have to evolve nd I'll surely need more time now.
So I have chosen the following combination:

Public Administration.
Political Science.
Zoology.
Criminology.
Psychology.

Zoology and psychology have similarities being science subjects but are still disparate. But a person having good knowledge of any of these can prepare the other one as well and with ease. Zoology is also helpful in preparing G.k's biological sciences.

Political Science carries 200 marks and its a subject that can help in Essay writing, Pakistan affairs and Current affairs.
This subject enhances knowledge.

Now for Criminology, I would say that I opted for this subject because I was left with no other option.
History subjects have become more lethal and science group is now more toxic and requires extra brain drain.
Criminology is theoretical and an interesting subject and it has role to play in our society. This subject also enhances knowledge so its a helpful subject.

You may differ in your opinions as this is my personal analysis and my choice.
Best of luck guys.

Isn't IR better than Political Science? I think PS has a huge syllabus and too many theories etc.

As far as Criminology is concerned, I also like this subject but I'm a bit hesitant about the lack of material available which is relevant to Pakistani context.

Depends on your aptitude but I personally prefer IR as it is more interesting and PS is lengthy.
