Essay on energy crisis in Pakistan
 

Dear!

Your outline structuring is good but I think you have put some more emphasis on solutions rather than causes and consequences.

Regards,

Mate... the essay on energy crisis was on causes and consequences....not solutions. Solutions were supposed to be of secondary importance and just to be highlighted in brief.

Excellent attempt sir for me it is very comprehensive.

Is "circular debt" is not a cause. and for consequence saving the energy at domestic level, that light and other apparatus is not a remedy?

@SIDOGAR
Dear circular debt is not cause of crisis but an effect of poor governance and it reduces further production of even installed capacity.And your second question I could not understand.

@aamir & arsalan
you are right and I also emphasized on causes and consequences while writing essay and wrote only 3 to 4 pages out of 21 on solutions.

Good attempt if the requisite is presented in essay but your outline seems to be differ what is asked in essay title-causes and consequences :?

nice... u should have added some more

Good try dear, try to align the outline and add some more points.

I had presented the topic somewhere at beginning of last year and had shared the essay at [url]http://www.cssforum.com.pk/css-compulsory-subjects/essay/essays/46177-energy-crisis-pakistan.html[/url] . you may like to have a look to it as well..

regards

Dear all
I would like to share my experience,
According to a renowned teacher of essay, It does not require
1. History
2. Philosophy
3. Generalization
(In short, No INTRODUCTION)
Come to the issue directly & main emphasis should be on the required statement.
We were not supposed to give suggestions.
I'll try to post Outline in my spare time.

@saqib and samreen
I followed one principle in my first attempt i.e to remain relevant that's why I didn't extend it too long .I included solutions of the problem because its seems odd to me that one is explaining an issue at length and gives no solution to it.

@ M T S AWAN
Dear you may right but I agree to Ghazanfar that you included many irrelevant things.I think the part of your essay above causes of crisis is irrelevant but I may wrong also.

We must remember 1 thing......FPSC has no specific criteria for checking. Its ur LUCK.:haha

Dear actually it depends upon the requirement of the party whom you are presenting the matter/essay. It was the requirement of my invigilator to write causes etc thats why it was done.

My friends got 62 & 41 respectively in their 1st attempt. Both of them are fail in Esssay in their 2nd attempt. What does it depicts?

Unpredictable essay scores!
 

Dear!

I think that being a gold medalist in English does not certify that one can also pass CSS Essay paper with flying colors.

This is because one gets reward of what he or she has put there in answer book. Organization of data, clarity and relevance to the topic are the tools required to pass this paper. Well structured outline and clear handwriting are also necessary.

If somebody is very good at English but he or she fails to utilize the three hour time effectively then he or she can not succeed.

FPSC is a very organized institution and there must be a set criteria for paper checking. Please don't lose hope and pray to Allah for success.
