Dear just believe in your own potentials. No one can beat you, just be confident, work hard. Make your goals/targets, and work for them. Consider that there is only one seat and it is just for you. Try your best and burn your mid night oils and snatch your seat with flying colors. Do every thing in a unique way. Make your own notes, do writing practice, work on charts, maps, short notes, read them and write them just be crazy in preparation, give weightage every paper equally. Your answers should be different from all candidates, you have to make checkers bounded to award you highest marks due to your art and uniqueness...Think about it...! You are just single and one man army. You can fight alone like one man army, you can defeat every body with your lethal weapons. Yes you can do it "karna he to karna he" be ready to kill or be killed in preparation" Just be brave and don't loose your heart ever again. Just forget about everything about numbers about candidates, about rumours and about their performance. What is needed believe in your own potentials....A friend of mine, always says these words, and makes me confident. These are her golden words which makes me much confident and indeed, it is a reality. If you have satisfied yourself, then no one can defeat you in any exam of life.

I wish you very very best of luck...:D

10,000 candidates appeared in CE-2013 and result is still awaited after 08 months, it clearly shows that if 15,000 candidates appeared in CE-2014 then result will be announced after 12-14 months approx.

Please share your source? not hearsay but an authentic source?

what is your source of information?
i think it would be 30k plus for this year.

why you think like this ?

Nothing to worry because most of the applicants would be those who have applied just to try their luck before the CSS screening test is implemented. So number of serious & well prepared candidates will remain more or less same.

[COLOR="Blue"][B]Yes, that is one reason. But brother it would definitely hamper the chances of those well prepared and serious candidates, as we all know that the examiner has to check all those answer scripts and after 200 crap papers come the good one, he would get irritated and a serious candidate with good effort may face the music, and we cannot rule out that thing because after all the examiner is a human being.

However, I would like to know the source of this news because 10th is the last date for receiving the documents at FPSC, how come they issue the stats at this stage? It is not possible, forms will be counted and then an accurate figure would come out and mostly FPSC annonuces the numbers after written exam. So I have serious doubts about the authenticity of that news, I would request Mr Bhutto to come up with an authentic source. [/B][/COLOR]

31st October was the last date and 10th is the last date for sending documents of those who have applied online. That means they have final number of candidates applied, but again like you guys, Im interested to know about the source and keep focusing on studies rather worrying about players in the game.

Does anyone interested in group studies for CE-14

Dear, I have been on this forum for almost last 4 years :). I know the policies of this forum a lot better then many others and I also know what it's take to create a panic with a gossip among candidates. If I was interesting in gossiping you could have seen this post in CSS-2013 result thread or many other thread like that.

[B]This is not the result which would be lying in Secret Department and nobody will know about it until the last date.[/B] Grow up guys, what I have shared is just a number and FPSC staff do know this because this is a clerical job and they are the ones who collect form and write it down on their journal along with the serial number.

[B]Anybody who still doubt the credibility of these figures is absolutely free, not believe in it until it is officially announced.[/B]

Calm down guys..
no wonder mr. Naveed's info could be correct, and this sudden rise in number of applications is quite reasonable too..

See, for the first time in history (as far as i know), application forms have been deliberately issued before the result of previous exams has been announced, so this clearly shows the intentions of FPSC. According to me the intention is to attract as many candidates as possible, in other words Rs. 2200/form. Also note that the fees has also been increased unexpectedly. Had the result been long announced, many a qualifier would not have even applied, i am a living example of this. Even many a failure would not have applied in passion of giving 1 more year to CSS. but this time, everyone has applied due to the chance factor.

So, relax, there would be more or less normal rise in number of candidates, as many of them would not even appear.

Enjoy ;)

BTW, just a conspiracy theory :D; Is there any role of "Zindagi Gulzar Hai" in increasing the number of CSS applicants???

[QUOTE=Naveed_Bhuutto;665885]This surely will be a testing time for FPSC, handling 22000+ applications[/QUOTE]
record breaking number of students will appear this year in css exam

Well i think the sudden increase in the number of candidates is due to various factors:
Firstly there is increased unemployment over the years owing to decrease FDIs and weak policies of governments that lead to financial disaster.
Secondly literacy rate has been improved gradually and more graduates are passing every year both from private and public sectors.
Thirdly,Charm an prestidge associated with civil services attracts the youth of Pakistan.
Fourth,Facebook has been extra active in promoting CSS in the recent year.Every guy who has attempted or is going to attempt CSS has its own page.Those who are allocated publicly announce themselves on these pages to get fantasized by others.
Moreover TV dramas like Zindagi gulzar hai and others telecased have shown CSPs like heroes(Any ways they are) so people admire them and wish to be like them.
I am very much sure that lot of my sisters here on this forum and others do not know the insides of bureaucracy they just look towards the gold that is glittering as aresult of which i can see thousands of girls attempting CSS.
Well best of luck To all .22500 matter nothing .If youare desrving you will be allocated in lacs :))

the total number of candidates is 24000 for CE 2014. Surprisingly the female candidates have been increased sharply by almost 30% increase

Yes, Its a good indication of competitiveness in our country. The increasing number of applicants also shows our youths' desire to serve for our country and to rescue it from the ongoing crises of corruption, mismanagement of resources and implementation of law and order. Lets wish all the bests of luck to all applicants. And also I would request to please lets pray for each others's success because, pray for others is more valuable than pray for oneself. Regards

@Last Island:

Thank you!


[QUOTE=Sania Ali;666706]I agree with this as well. I also applied this year but didn't prepare anything yet and I am only left with two months. I have been visiting this forum for past three years and I thought I should give it a try before I turn 28. So no need to worry many of the applicant would be like me.[/QUOTE]

I also attempted CE-2013 with a preparation of around 15days with the hope of miracles but now I have learned that miracles do occur but only for those who deserve miracles due to their hard work. Please dedicate 8-10hrs a day & may be you could pass css. All the best! :))

It seems like it is 15,000 fresh plus 7,500 those who are awaiting result,
plus those who are scared of maths and wanted to do give the exam next year but decided ke abhi hi dai dain

I don't think that examiner would deduct marks of a good paper after checking 200 crappy papers. In fact he would award generously a worth-checking paper. Yeh insecurity hi lai doobti hai logon ko

lol wrong news .
when it comes to " apply online facility" many people make 2 or 3 testing profiles ( fake profiles) online before making a real one , in order to see what would it be like and if your friend at fpsc ( who according to you is the source ) is relying on those stats then i am sorry . its wrong .

though it is statistically true that growth rate for the number of candidates is ascending every year . but no one can declare that 22500 candidates will appear( or 22500 that registered were all real people.) this might be a number so let it be a number and not a psychological weapon .

[COLOR="blue"][B]Yes brother the reasons you quoted are pretty valid, but if we take unemployment in consideration, the situation was not different in 2012 as well as in 2013, this sharp increase the number of applicants cannot be attributed to unemployment. However, the people aspiring for authority and nuisance value associated with these positions is a major reason which is amplified by the ubiquitous social media like Facebook, twitter etc. Least but not the least the drama serial ZGH you quoted can also be a reason for sharp increase in the numbers of female aspirants. I know many aspirants when asked why they are taking this exam the answer is, "We want to be independent". However the number of competitive and potential candidates would be the same around 1200-1500.[/B][/COLOR]

[COLOR="Blue"][B]My dear brother, I have experience of taking two competitive examinations and qualifying one, I have got much familiarity with marking scheme of the papers particularly essay and composition paper which are used as filter to reduce the number of qualifiers. When there are large number of candidates and most of them are not potential ones, the proportion of good to bad papers is large and when examiner goes through a large chunk of bad papers, there are chances that he may treat a good one in the same way, and this is of no surprise in Essay paper which is purely a subjective paper with no objectivity.

So my dear brother, watch your words, you are novice and have aspirations and think ideally, that's good but one has to be a realist which you can't be until you take your attempt. This wasn't an insecurity but a plain reality, I have no insecurities because it is a characteristic of a newbie, either he is very idealistic or gets so timid, when he takes one or two attempts he becomes realistic which I am now. In competitive exams, attempting a good paper can't bring you in qualifiers, it is not a degree exam where examiner has no issue in passing any number of candidates who have attempted a good enough paper, here the examiner is looking for the reasons to fail you, if you don't give him a chance, he will find one. So brother keep calm. [/B][/COLOR]

A good sign though. more and more educated youth are thinking that they are capabale of qualifying it. quality education or what?.....

[QUOTE=Hamidullah Gul;666851]A good sign though. more and more educated youth are thinking that they are capabale of qualifying it. quality education or what?.....[/QUOTE]

Every one is trying his/her best and nothing else. This is indeed a green sign.

My dear I am sorry, but I think it's the raised level of unemployment that has resulted in such large number of registrations.

Applied candidates = 22,500
Total Seats = 250
% of people selected = 1%

1 in 100 people will eventually make it, if you include quotas this figure will also decrease. Hence approximately 1 person in 200 people. LOL

One, I'm not a newbie. Two, I didn't quote you, so you can't say I was talking about you. I was talking about general insecurity when people are scared to take up challenge and find excuses of how they will be wronged. Taking an exam doesn't make you an authority in paper checking so you can't say it's a reality, it's an opinion. I have my own opinion and I consider that a checker is there to give you marks, not deduct them and he will give marks where he finds they are due; and people who object in that way are insecure according to my opinion. Kindly refrain from making personal judgements calling one novice when you don't know anything about me.

You are not a newbie! But you sound as one. Even if you are not, I have no issue, there are many people here who are not. So stay cool my bro, you get hyper for nothing, keep calm dear, it is getting colder outside and your temperature is boosting for nothing.

It could be one of the reasons.

Delay in Ce-2013 result is only due to re-exam of fsd result.And 2nd main reason screening test in next css exam thats 22000 plus candidate apply this year.Because so many candidate have a last chance this year and 5000 to 9000 is take exam only for enjoyment.4000 candidate only burn midnight oil for this race of competition.

hmm it was expected
