One thing i must share with u that u must give outline. at the moment, i dnt remeber but as per my knowledge it is mentioned in question dat make outline and write essay on any topic of the following.
even if u r nt asked to give outline...u should give it...because it is the thing which gives u direction and facilitates examiner.

Well! What I perceived is that don't write without direction. Even if you don't write outline, you will have to write logically which would be quite enough to get maximum marks.

i wish all of you to get passed..and also pray of us, the upcoming aspirants.

Paper of Islamiyat and Computer Science was difficult...
 

I couldn't expect that the paper would be very difficult ....

All other papers were okay

Psychology was very easy mashallah and it is easier and interested subject than indo pak history. Papers gone very well and i hope that i will get good marks in psychology.

[QUOTE=sajidnuml;271499]here goes my saddest tale friends I am just back. After reaching at center I Wished I could sleep I did not want to spend this long day here attempting two giants of CSS Exams. My courage was completely put to test by the nature and I have no fault of my own I wanted to sleep last night spending many hours on the bed.

Anyway I was given the Question paper I slected a topic that I knew much about that was: What are the hurdles in our way to becoming a truly independent state? I started by Dividing the question into two parts: External and Internal factors both major contributing factors undermining state independence.

Under External I took stand by explaining Pakistan's Allience with the US in countering the threat of Soviet Communism resulting in the outbreak of COLD WAR thereby becoming a leading country employing religious ideology to fight a proxy war the alliance was a necessity amidst India Hegemony and bad economic conditions besides weak military power . now the effects of this were given under the Internal factors as weak political structures and all other other social political and economic crises.

Now I wrote about 2700 words but I had to face many problems due lack of rest. There was complete disharmony b/w the mind and the hand this resulted in weak use of vocabulary some times wrong sentence structure, However I was successful to much extent justifying the points I raised in the essay.

My essay was built on the assumption of western alliance that Pakistan formed tracing its history to Truman Doctrine of containment leading to actual traditional war involving Pakistan's religious organizations. now when the US found Frankenstein killing its own master the US was quick to declare the MUJAHIDS OF YESTREDAYS THE TERRORISTS OF TODAY. pakistan followed US annoying the militants who have turned against Pakistan carrying out deadly attacks.

the Internal factors followed closely the developments in the external factors which directly affected Pakistan internal giving rise to religious ethnic and provincial conflict besides establishing authoritarian regimes neglecting democratic norms and subordinating rule of law. results corruption weak center poverty, unequal wealth gap giving rise to unregulated capitalism and widespread exploitation, similarly education and public development sector neglected leaving citizenry discontented, who turned against center demanding independence for thier provinces Baluchistan is one and east Pakistan already left.

In introduction I pointed that nation states pursue their national interests where as Pakistan promoted and furthered the Interests of imperial powers thereby becoming a proxy state subservient to Imperial powers, this was followed by the above materiel.

this is my tale not satisfied, had i took rest I could have attempted it in a more better way bus Ab jo Naseeb me hga wo mil jaye ga but I am expecting 42 marks on the claim that in the 2010 my essay was bad one and did not write outline as well.[/QUOTE]

Have the solid faith on almighty Allah as Allah never waist the hard work of anybody....

mine was funny :P i had to give 11 papers in first 6 days of exam and then a week break for the subject in which i got my engineering degree i-e computer science :) the first 2 and half days went well but then islamyat struck me down big time could only attempt 75 percent of the paper as i made the blunder of opting for urdu in which i barely wrote 10 pages in 3 hours :( let me give u paper wise breakdown of my experience
essay ...wrote abt more then 2000 words on challenges to pakistan had left outline for the end and then forgot all abt it :P
precise and composition... had to rush through the paper (which was in my opinion easy ) because of pak srilanka world cup match :)
Everyday Science.... brilliant the only time i left the hall feeling elated :)
Current affairs....good
Pak Affairs ... good
Islamyat .... worst as explained above
indo pak history... paper 1 very good should get atleast more then 60 had to rush through last question but otherwise good paper 2 was ok overall good
journalism.... eh! judging by last year result failed :)
sociology...average
pushto.... spent almost a week "rattafying" rehman baba khushal baba and hamza baba poems nd verses and revised it all night before the paper and wht happened was tht i forgot all of em during the paper because of no sleep for last 5 days :)had to resort to translation questions and a question abt novel but overall good
Computer Science... well when i look at the 2010 paper i set a score of 80 plus for me in 2011 and then when i look at the 2011 i was like oh GOD wht do i do now :P in the end somehow scrap through the paper

overall
not that difficult but certainly needs (atleast 3 months) study cant do it with a 9 to 5 job :)

ps: will i get through the result ?:)

I wish aik mojza ho aur..........
 

Dear Fellows,
I am following this thread since the very begining but never thought to share my experience as nothing was superb in it.
But I am going to share because i felt though papers did not went well but some thing was exceptional in my routine during exams that i never got tired.Some tips which we forgot to follow are worth mentioning.
English Essay:I was never prepared for this paper and i wish it could be the last paper ........but FPSC waly mery liay strategy badalny se tu rahy....Kher I was cool and calm as compared to other students qk mujy pta tha mujy kuch nai ata:)...kher i tried my best to attempt the paper per writing practice na hony ki wja se sirf 7 page he likhy aur wo b dobara parhny ki zehmat nai ki.I am expecting 10 to 15 marks in essay:(
Tips:One should have writing practice of atleast 60 to 80 minutes on daily basis for the period of 4 months or more to be fluent in writing because if you have the knowledge and could not express it,it would automatically affect your overall performance.
English Precise:i was late for 2 minutes and could never forgot those 2 minutes qk paper distribute ho chuky thy aur objective end hony mein sirf 8 minut reh gaye thy un mein se 1 minut mujy apni seat dhondhy aur Roll# likhny mein gaya baki mujy ye b nai pta tha k objective kaisy attempt kerty hein 1 minut wo instructions parhny mein lag gya k kaisy boxes ko fill kerna ha .....Kher subjective paper nay nerves ko kuch settle down kia per it was too hectic to attempt the paper in time.
Tip:precise should be prepared well as it can save your time and never be late:nono
EDS: an easy paper
acha ho gya but 50 objectives k liay thori mehnat zyada kerni chahiay aur ankhein aur kan khuli rakhni chahiay.be logical while preparing for this paper.
Ye wahid paper tha jo mainy sara attempt kia aur time se pehly complete ho gya
Current Affairs:
average b nai huwa bas so so
Pakistan affairs:
Just like current affairs paper
Islamiyat:one should have to be more logical more rational.Mainy paper urdu mein attempt kia bgher tyari k qk mjy lagta tha mujy kafi kuch pta ha but paper mein ulta huwa sary paper english mein day day k us din urdu vocabulary kaheen gum gayi...is mein koi khas kmal nai ker ski.
Journalism:
objective was good (12 correct)
Subjective: it was not like previous papers,pattern change tha so a little surprising paper.kher overall it went well.
Tip:one should must prepare quotes to decorate the paper
Public Ad: so so
But it could be attempted well agr tyari achi hoti tu.it was an easy paper but meri tyarrii....
Muslim Law: paper mein appear hony se pehly mainy khud ko khob kosa k ye optional kyn lia ...qk mujy kuch b yad nai tha aa rha but paper according to the expectation tha 3 question i think past papers se thy
Objective tough tha ...qk is ki preparation b bas so so thi
constitutional law:constitutional law ka paper kafi mushkil tha but it was according to the previous trend....more analytical
Punjabi: superb paper tha sara kuch wesa he jaisa bnda expect ker skta ha 3 din ki preparation k sath it went well with 17+ objectives correct.
TIP:Punjabi can earn good marks provided with the satisfactory preparation
Computer Science:mera khyal tha 4 sal computer parh parh k is ki tyari ki koi khas zrorat nai thi so mainy is ki preparation feb k liay chorh di phir time he nai mila aur 3 din mein kya prepare ho skta tha.It was biggest blunder of my attempt.
TIP:never treat this paper like halwa paper it can earn good marks ager tyari ho tu.......wesy to be very honest it was more practical type paper and such type of paper is difficult to attempt.2sry ye technical paper ha is mein bnda kuch b nai likh sakta so be careful while making CS an optional.

General Tips:
1.Get ready and prepare each and every thing before Feb.Remember you have no time for revision during exams.
2.Prepare your own short notes...even shortest notes to have an idea about the concepts.ye notes itny short hon k 3 se 4 hours mein cover ho sakein.
3.During examination,be careful about your food and sleep.Btany ko ye bat sabhi btaty hein but sach mein css is an exam of nerves.even during the exam toffees choclates type chezein sath rakhein.
4.Never think for a while during paper that you dont know anything.Remember your memory is a hard disk jis mein ap ki zrorat ki her cheez ha bas polish your skill to relate the things with ideas.
5.Enjoy your surrounding your environment....dimagh ko drust halat mein rakhny k liay lateefy parhein ya khud apna sense of humour tez kerein.try to see the lighter side of that phase and dont be tensed.
Last but not least "Have faith in ALLAH" ager ap nay mehnat ki ha tu kabhi waste nai ho gi...put your best efforts then pray to Allah and hope for the best....jaisy itny bury papers k baad b mujy umeed ha mera result itna ganda nai ho ga...:vic
Most important thing:paper mein aisy ho jayo jaisy ap alien ho jo ird gird walon mein se kisi ki zuban nai samjhta,...after paper dicussion zroor kerein but paper k bary mein gongy ho jayein k kesa huwa kya likha....


Hope so aap itni lambi kahan ko mind nai kerein gy ......never waste your attempt like me.BE SURE that you are well prepared for it.
