Town Planning.

[QUOTE=nooral;821776]Kindly suggest me which subject I should select.. hafiz mubashar[/QUOTE]

Related to your other options, I think you should have a detailed look over the syllabus of the subjects from group no. 6- Law subjects. And, choosing one among Constitutional Law or International Law would be better esp. when you have opted Intl Relations and Indo Pak History.

Physics seems nice now after I checked the papers of 2013, 2014 and 2015.


I feel like going for this combination:

IR
Physics
Criminology
Geography

[QUOTE=Life ka network;821312]your selection is not right. If you are taking Constitutional Law then you should take Political Science.
If it is your ist attempt then take new subjects.[/QUOTE]

P.S syllabus is very lengthy and i assume its a time consuming subject.
Can i opt I.R with I.L? OR Criminology?
Thank u so much for yr reply.

You can opt International Law with IR.

I have come up with this combination

I.R
Journalism
Governance and Public Policies
Constitutional law/ Criminology/ international Law (Still confused)
Urdu.Lit

Can i opt Urdu.lit with Punjabi? As they are not in same group
And
Does Islamic studies paper is going to be in english now?

[QUOTE=Life ka network;821916]You can opt International Law with IR.[/QUOTE]

Oh thank you
It will be great help then.. :D

Journalism or Indo.Pak history, which of these is a better option?
I think, Indo.Pak history is easy than journalism and it will help in Pakistan Affairs too.

You should go for indo pak ..

People who are opting for criminology... I do not see much discussion about the subject. Any recommendations? What about Past papers? Will they be available on this forum?

My introduction: Just starting out preparation for CSS and going through the hell of subject selection. :p

Hey.. I'm also thinking of opting IR+Physics and I wanted to take Journalism but I feel like Geography is more interesting and a solid science subject so I took that. For the remanining subject, I think you should check out Criminology as it seems interesting. How was your Physics preparation and paper? I do find it interesting but I really don't like the complicated maths and derivations etc in it.

[QUOTE=kainateeq;821917]I have come up with this combination

I personally feel that Intl Law would be a good option along with I.R. But, if you don't opt it, Criminology would be better than Constitutional law.
Secondly, Urdu Literature can be opted with Punjabi. Thirdly, there is maximum chance that Islamic Studies paper will be just in English now. There will be no option for Urdu.

@kingfalcon

Physics is quite lengthy subject and not so easy either. 2-3 months period of preparation duration should be alloted to this subject to yield good scores out of it. My paper 2 went well . However, paper 1 was not so good.

@All

Pls need some experienced comments on my subject selection

All are different subjects. In your combination, no one touches others.

dear nationbuilder, Physics is a scoring subject. Its depend upon your mental level how much you perceive the physical phenomena. if you are good in physics and have a command over subject go along with physics

[QUOTE=Kamran8;825590]dear nationbuilder, Physics is a scoring subject. Its depend upon your mental level how much you perceive the physical phenomena. if you are good in physics and have a command over subject go along with physics[/QUOTE]

But the numericals and derivations? Generally Physics is a lovely subject but it requires pure Physics background upto BSc level and strong mathematical skills. I just look at the notations and it drives me crazy sometimes. Quantum Physics and Thermodynamics seems very hard.

Guidance required... Expected optionals are:
accounting-200
business administration-100
pure mathematics-100
statistics-100
mercentile law-100
A bit confused about accounting...kindly guide should i replace it with economics as i have background of economics (B.sc level)...

My optional subjects

1. Accounting & Auditing-200
2. Islamic History & Culture-100
3. Philosophy -100
4. Punjabi-100
5. Public Administration (not confirmed yet)

Physics
International Relations
International Law
European History

Have a look on my optionals and guide me.
International relations
International law
Indo pak history
psychology
gender studies

Same :)
Friend kindly suggest me books for this combination !

don't back track if you are good at accounting it's scoring subject

2. Islamic History and Culture (100)

5. Sindhi (100)

It's my first attempt.
Please comment on my subject selection and Suggestions from seniors will be highly appreciated.

It would be better if you replace political science with IR because, Political science has remained low scoring over past years. Moreover if you opt IR it would help you in current affairs prep as well. and International law would be a better option as compare to Muslim law.
