Dear hope so you will be fine,
please share some preparation methodology and some how about how to improve english grammer , from where to prepare analogies, vocabulary, pair of words.

and what about geneder studies as optional subject instead of environmental science?

thanks

[QUOTE=dufersne;1025640]I saw one of your reply in a thread which was about the time you spent for the preparation. That post was a little ambiguous. Did you start your preparation in August 2015? When did you join Academy Feb 2015? Kindly name the academy if you can.

Overall how many month and hours per day did you study? It is very important for some of us as we have to plan accordingly. Kindly do respond!![/QUOTE]
Sir... I joined academy in feb... But I was just done with my housejob in Jan... Besides there were only 10 to 15 students...so the classes won't be regular...I would just go and listen to lecture and only occasionally open my lectures once at home... Slowly I started working on my English by writing one or two paragraphs in a week n googling a topic of crrent affair once in a while but in August... I just sat down made a time table and cover syllabus...but it was not wise...I should have started at least in July or better June

Grammar: write paragraphs get them checked from any good english teacher...buy a grammar book with exercises to solve at end of chapter
I did not prepare analogies
Vocabulary..I did gre list and added words from past papers
Pair of words.. book "exploring the world of english"
Es vs gs... Depends on background but I would go for es it's much more scoring then gs

What is.the perfect way to get your paragraph checked, what areas need to be taken into account. Should we get question answers checked or essays or paragraphs?

[QUOTE=hazelnut;1024435]Now how to crack css in my opinion
First of all... learn to write paragraphs...write one paragraph daily no matter what and try to get it checked on weekly basis from an english teacher. with time you will notice yourself your improvement.Once you have learnt paragraph, start learning introduction and conclusion writing
Work on precis, you will need an english teacher to check this one too
while paragraph writing, try to learn new words conjunctions idioms phrasal verbs and try to incorporate in your writing... (but when you are writing in exam dont forcefully insert words etc )
Second area after english to work is current affairs... i joined an academy and took lectures from a journalist...hes a remarkable teacher... i suggest following dawn paper,diplomat, jwt magazine and reading editorials... editorials helps in english and analysis...develop interest in current affaurs, watch news and broaden your horizon...try to write notes on ongoing topics say kalboshan case
For mcqs of each subject, i did mcqs of past papers since 2000
rest optionals and eds and isl... i gave 15 to 20 days to each... books are different for each and in fact there were no books for new syllabus so google was my best friend... i have mentioned books in different posts.. if anyone wants she/he can ask again :)
i tried to sum up.... hope it helps...best of luck :)[/QUOTE]

Best way might be to get a teacher who coaches for css specifically. Work on paragraph structure,grammar and clarity. No need to try using difficult words.
Most important is essay...which emerge from paragraphs...questions 4,5 check kra lain to know what is the pattern

Sir... Motivation comes from within...try remembering why you are going for css. Moreover once you decide your loved ones start making hopes and expectations, think about them. Also, almost everyone has to pay an opportunity cost so keep it in mind. Moreover, css teaches you to believe in yourself your efforts and your creator... So have a firm belief and don't get interrupted by anything
P.s one of my friends had filled her wall with sticky notes with motivating quotes so you can try that too
I know keep going is most difficult part of css...but sir css is test of your patience and determination after all... Convince yourself to ace it.
Best of luck :)

You chose ones you think are authentic. And examiner wants a national narrative and critical thinking from you. Dnt be critical of religion,our ideology, state, government and you will be fine... You can use terms like politicians and stuff... Start googling you will learn to choose with passgae of time
