AOA to all,
He did that & i did this.He got this much marks and i got that much marks. He applied that strategy and i applied some other strategy.I studied from books and he prepared his own notes. I can't understand this. Are v people confusing our own selves?Tell me is there any pet rule for scoring in CSS exams?If yes, then why have people scored so low after all the hard work.And as they say " Success has many fathers".So if anyone has scored well in any particular subject he wants to get all the credit by telling about his techniques and strategies.People who got low marks in optionals or those who failed in essay or Islamiat did it intentionally i think so.What to say? And when u tell someone around u about the scoring trends he/she has a devilish smile on his/her face.And they say all this happened due to lack of hard work. Oh come on you didn't study well and u were not serious.

I agree.. Jitne mun utni baten. people who smile would never be able to realize the agony of candidates because they never dare to sit for the exam.

very well said hamza..... we really dnt hv a better clarification than what u hv said :)......... thumbs up to u buddy

[QUOTE=Baggio;231293]There might be another reason, a large no. of aspirants were running after journalism & history, and it seemed as if these were also compulsory subjects....:onesec
now trend would be changed again:comein
another theory of scoring in optional and passing compulsory has also been reversed by FPSC:onesec[/QUOTE]

yes this too is de case as many would think twice rather trice taking histories nd journalism as their optional subjects in 2011

[QUOTE=Alchemist;231295]Salam!

[QUOTE=Tipu Shah;231296]salam...

Elective study is the worse cause behind the scene.... i observed that now people switched from good books to some marketish books.. just like some exam cram series and like that.... so people consider that if they cram 20 question that it is enough and according to student point of view they are going to examination hall with full "prep", but , on the other hand nobody is fullfilling the FPSC's criteria of "conceptual study"....

Therefore, my dear fellows... if you prep 20 or 25 question than only luck can be helpfull my dear.............

The best way to get good score is to study one text-book rather than a book comprises of some elective question.....One book study is the best and scoring study in the field of CSS, but, only text-book........[/QUOTE]
