1) Read the portion of golden suggestions from CSSforum
2) Essay always comes from selected fields e.g. education, gender, stability of Pakistan; please analyze the essay papers of past 20 years to jot down a list of fields to work upon.

3) Please understand the examiner's cycle of giving essay paper; it comes difficult in one year and easy in the other year. So, prepare it this way. If you are studying for 2018 then the essay paper, most probably, would be easy and descriptive type as it was in 2016.

4)I believe more than 60% failure is due to wrong interpretation of the topic.

Tips:
1)Understand the topic
2)Use simple and flawless English.
3)Handwriting should be neat and clean
4)Learn the structure of the essay
5)Practice as much as you can.

Last tip
Never underestimate yourself; nobody writes perfect and nobody is fully prepared for this paper.

All the Best!

One of my siblings who is civil servant tagged me that i will not be able to pass the essay paper as i was too much obsessed and confused during preparation. Result was that i could not prepare much and appeared in the examination with an unknown topic of essay that was: Women Sportspersons are the new ambassadors to the soft image of Pakistan: I wrote on the topic by making a random outline on the back of paper and then i composed a simple essay in paragraphs. Though i was much confused but did well. Later on people made me confuse that you selected a random topic, u wont be able to get through it and you did not know about women sportspersons. How could you get through it? But i got 45 marks in it without having an idea about sports or anything related to this topic. In short, one must have a written practice of essay, data collection or rocket science material does not matter as i hd chosed a difficult topic but passed it even without having an idea about role of women as sportspersons or as ambassadors in this regard.
