brother I appeared twice in CSS only my third & last chance has been lapsed due to over age limit. If FPSC gave 1 or 2 years age relaxation then again I'll do so again with ful preparation.
Hardwork ultimately pays I believe in that but Luck also and always plays a vital role in our life. 2 days before I talked to my sis in Lahore she told me that her 6 batchmates who also appeared in CE-2013 just to change their groups have been failed in. What you say about them ? They did not work hard or they are incompetent ?

I know my weaknesses I am not good in English but I got 32 marks in CE-2012 Essay without any preparation and 76 marks in Business Administration how ?
Agar just hardwork se hi saray kaam ho rahay hotay tou
rehri (Cart) chalanay walay,
eintain (bricks) uthanay walay,
rohri bajri uthanay walay,
subzi sales kernay walay etc
jo sara din mehnat mazdori kertay hain wo hum se kahien ziada hardwork kertay hain, unhain phir top bureacratic posts pe hona chahiye na ? ab aap kahoge kay education bhi aik cheez hoti hai tou for you kind information main aap ko Masters degree walay logo se milwa sakta hon jo sabzi sale ker rahay hain shops chala rahay hain just because they are not as lucky as others.
NAB test Sindh Urban domicile with 53 marks had been selected for junior investigation officer but not me with 56 marks for the same post you know why ? Luck matters brother.

For Waqas, FARY and all those who tried but couldn't make it :


The GOOD FIGHT
“The good fight is the one that’s fought in the name of our dreams. When we’re young and our dreams first explode inside us with all of their force, we are very courageous, but we haven’t yet learned how to fight. With great effort, we learn how to fight, but by then we no longer have the courage to go into combat. So we turn against ourselves and do battle within. We become our own worst enemy. We say that our dreams were childish, or too difficult to realize, or the result of our not having known enough about life. We kill our dreams because we are afraid to fight the good fight.”
*“The first symptom of the process of our killing our dreams is the lack of time.*The busiest people I have known in my life always have time enough to do everything. Those who do nothing are always tired and pay no attention to the little amount of work they are required to do. They complain constantly that the day is too short. The truth is, they are afraid to fight the good fight.
The second symptom of the death of our dreams lies in our certainties. Because we don’t want to see life as a grand adventure, we begin to think of ourselves as wise and fair and correct in asking so little of life. We look beyond the walls of our day-to-day existence, and we hear the sound of lances breaking, we smell the dust and the sweat, and we see the great defeats and the fire in the eyes of the warriors. But we never see the delight, the immense delight in the hearts of those who are engaged in the battle. For them, neither victory nor defeat is important; what’s important is only that they are fighting the good fight.
And, finally, the third symptom*of the passing of our dreams is peace. Life becomes a Sunday afternoon; we ask for nothing grand, and we cease to demand anything more than we are willing to give. In that state, we think of ourselves as being mature; we put aside the fantasies of our youth, and we seek personal and professional achievement. We are surprised when people our age say that they still want this or that out of life. But really, deep in our*
hearts, we know that what has happened is that we have renounced the battle for our dreams—we have refused to fight the good fight.”
When we renounce our dreams and find peace, we go through a short period of tranquillity. But the dead dreams begin to rot within us and to infect our entire being. We become cruel to those around us, and then we begin to direct this cruelty against ourselves. That’s when illnesses and psychoses arise. What we sought to avoid in combat—disappointment and defeat—came upon us because of our cowardice. And one day
the dead, spoiled dreams make it*difficult to breathe, and we actually seek death. It’s death that frees us from our certainties, from our work, and from that terrible peace of our Sunday afternoons.”

I would like to say that it is equally possible that mistake may be from the examiners side not from the student side. After all they are also human beings not GOD that they cannot make mistakes and it is also equally possible that their may be something fishy. we cannot totally ignore that thing. I know those type of css candidates who only depend on luck and after failing they say that someone has done conspiracy against us but I also know some students who gave excellent papers and still were not selected and students who were not so good got higher marks. css is the exam handled by human beings and those who are conducting the exam we cannot give them free hand that ok they are mistake less and there will be no mistake from them.

Respected seniors,

Thank you for your sympathies with all of us who failed to qualify for this exam. I also failed in essay paper but, that was not as shocking for me. What was shocking to see was getting high marks in subjects I wasn't confident to pass and getting low marks in subjects that I prepared well. Changes in evaluation criteria and marking scheme are common among all competitive exams, but there are many things that remain questionable about the CSS 2013 results. I would like to ask my seniors so that they may explain these aberrations to me and other candidates. I hope you would trust me for what I am going to reveal here.

I had studied Islamiat in O levels (2002) and since then, I never touched this subject. I just studied 4 chapters from Farkhanda Noor's book Islamiat for CSS and attempted the paper in my own way(what I thought of Islam & Islamic principles/practices) without quoting a single hadith/ayat or book/author. I was awarded 61 marks. I wonder how & why?

I received 54 marks in Pakistan Affairs despite the fact that I didn't study any book/article from post-Khilafat movement till Musharraf regime in 4 months of my preparation. Khair, my good luck !

Now the most surprising results are as follows :

Islamic History part I 59
Islamic History part II 44 (Keep it in mind that I consulted the same resources for both parts (Professor Hitti, Armstrong, BBC history + Documentaries) and attempted in the same way
I would still accept these results. But, it was shocking for me to see my friend getting a low score (58,48) despite his past track record of getting higher scores(65, 68 & 69, 67) in his previous two attempts. Neither Islamic history has changed in one year nor the question paper pattern has been altered. ??

Now the last subject that I want to mention here is Balochi which is my native language as well. I got 52 in Balochi but that was not surprising for me. What was really surprising was that my respected friend who had scored 75 and 80 in previous two attempts, scored 56. I wonder if his Balochi has changed in one year or he lost his mind in his third/last attempt??

Same was the case with students of Journalism who received very low scores like 33, 37, 38 despite getting over 50 marsks in previous attempts. Would anyone argue that they received marks by cramming market books ? Similarly, it was even more shocking to see students with a background in journalism getting low (not average) marks.

I will be thankful to all of you if you explain the above mentioned 'anomalies'.

P.S I congratulate all those who passed in CSS 2013. They all worked hard and 'luckily' crossed all the 'barriers' set by evaluators. I do not see any conspiracy behind failure of candidates. In my view, the parochial approach of FPSC to save face after the Faisalabad debacle was the main reason for the low and unexpected result. Our seniors should do a hollistic analysis by viewing some of the the empirical evidence(subject wise scores) from all those who failed to qualify CSS 2013 examinations. Or atleast they should interview 3-4 candidates from different regions/centres before giving their such superficial opinions.

Nothing will change even if you get the most beautiful explanations about these anomalies. Take them as they are and move on.

No sir. This is not the way out. You must guide us for the next attempt i.e 2014 so that we play safe and come out as winners. I believe that there must be some way to deal with evaluators who check papers with the intention of failing the candidates or giving them least marks possible?? Please share your valuable insights.

You have done what was required. CSS 2013 papers particularly compulsory papers were very unconventional, they required analysis not crammed material. You analysed in your own own words, you hit the bull's eye, keep it up, you won't get let down.

Again you analysed and you got the reward. Just fulfill their requirement, they won't block the marks, after all they don't have to take these marks back to their home. Just be natural.

Look at the past papers and compare them with 2013 paper, you will get the clue behind the low score of your friend in that particular attempt. He might have been stereotypical and still evaded the disaster because paper itself used to be stereotypical but 2013 paper was analytical. Perhaps that is the reason behind low score this time.

No idea of that paper, have never seen one.

It would be prudent not to opt Journalism and Socio and all such subjects that are very general and are opted by majority of people because you can't do anything special in such subjects from majority of others who opted the same subject.

That's like a gentleman attitude, now you know your mistakes, stay ready for next attempt and remember don't repeat your mistakes. I would rather urge you to sit down and try to figure out where you lacked and then make a strategy. These are not anomalies, you must realize that things have changed and are not as they used to be in the past, now you must be natural in your thought.

Best of luck.
