You never know whether you're going to pass Essay and Precis or not. It's common to find toppers of one year to fail the very next year. For instance, just this year, a girl failed and her name was amongst the top 10 qualifiers of CSS 2016. And after relying on luck in Essay and Precis, you also need to pray that your subjects prove to be scoring. Scoring trend is another problem. People have, say, 80 marks in one subject. The very next year, they get in 40s and 50s with the same amount of effort and performance. CSS is terribly unpredictable. It needs to be standardized as soon as possible.

Now as far as validity of this exam is concerned, I think it does not measure what it intends to measure - intellect. Someone who's got Agriculture cannot be compared to someone who's got Anthropology. I mean what is it that is being measured through these two different subjects.

At this point it would be pertinent to mention here some recommendations for the Commission, which must be implemented promptly:

1) Standardize the assessment by introducing a marking scheme, so that all examiners are consistent in awarding credit. Besides, it will set a minimum standard for one to qualify a Competitive examination.

2) Each answer script must be assessed more than once by different examiners so as to ensure that no candidate is a victim of any personal prejudice.

3) Allocate more weightage to the interview and personality tests. It is = important to assess a candidate's personality than to give huge importance to his/her academic skills. This is so because the candidate is aspiring for administrative career, not embarking on any pedagogic adventure.

You do have to consider that CSS aspirants stay cooped up in their house in isolation for as long as 3 attempts or if they pass in first attempt or second attempts for minimum 1,2 years. A person who does not too much social contact can't be expected to have groomed personality. Although, I agree with Hassan Nisar comment but there is a genuine reason a person might not across as very presentable.

Mention the Essay that you opted. Was that Feminism? If so then to what extent your Optional Sub - Gen Studies helped in this regard
I attempted the essay "more and more international military engagements by the United Nations, Is the world moving towards peace". Framed my thesis statement to take the stand that the world is not moving towards peace and proved it through arguments and examples. Having said that, Gender studies definitely helps in preparation of essay, I wrote an essay about women in CSS 2016 attempt and managed to pass it.
