Its not happening. The rule of 16 years is not being implemented for css 2011 and even if it were, still LLBs could appear anytime. Chill

Interesting Rumors
 

Dear,

Why do you spread rumors? Indeed, you all are not ratified about current changing and nobody has defined appropriate source of information (Rumors).:nono Thus, there is need to stop this practice to concentrate on studies, please.

Regard.

yeah i got the point..
LLb is a 17 years education and if they are excluded than what would be the future of MBBS as well..
hmmm thanx :)

[QUOTE=Siaa;207544]but it should not happen.. :(
can LLBs appear in 2011 term if rule of 16 years education is implimented????[/QUOTE]

hey everyone, just to reinforce and further emphasize the question posed about LLB honours, I hereby explain and then ask :

O-levels- straight A's(that's actually 3 years of education as opposed to matriculation which stands at 2), then A-Levels-straight A's again with a distinction at Law (which is universally and internationally considered equivalent to our plain B.A in Pakistan which is elucidated by the 'fact of entry requirement for LLB HONOURS in the external U.K llb program' ;which stands at 'either A-levels or B.A') and lastly LLB honors(which took 3 years, i'm wondering y didn't i fail a year and do it 4 :).... ...

... so as per FPSC how many years of education do i actual qualify for again??? because we have this IBCC equivalence system here which equals matric to O-Levels, and inter to A-levels-- which is 12 years as opposed to global recognition of A-levels as 13 years of education ???? n globally honours is a degree equal to 16 years..... these folks in the FPSC can't possibly de-bar me from siting this attempt ???????

sorry for the lack of precision, m sleepy n i wrote as it came....
thnkxx

don't be telling me now that i need to complete a masters first and then sit this exam again by 2013 as i can't be done with a masters before 2012 .... fingures crossed n awaiting an informed answer by someone who actually knows for sure n not just a 'tussulli jawab' ???

Not to worry at all mate .. No one can 'de-bar' you from sitting into CSS 2011 with your LLB Hons degree .. The rules and qualification criteria are the same as before for CSS 2011 .. But if they decide to change the rules and make it 16 years of education after 2011, (Which is highly unlikely) they will probably give at least 2 years time to implement it as done before when some rules and regulations were changed .. Don't follow the rumors, they have been flying around ever since competitive examinations started .. Just prepare yourself well and give it a go

A-levels is equivalent to F.A/F.S.C in Pakistan and i think rightly so .. Though A-levels is much tougher than B.A but maturity is what is required and taken into account when they legislate for education in Pakistan ..
So u don't have to wish to have failed a year to make it a 4 years degree .. :) U r perfectly posed to sit in CE-11 ..
Best Of Luck ..

P.S: I m also doing LLB Honors, London University program and got my 1st year result today with 1st class in Common Law & Reasoning .. :)

Regards ..

A letter published in Dawn
 

I AM a candidate for CSS
examinations and facing the
worst possible situation in my life
in view of the reduction in the
age limit.
Pakistan is notorious for the
policies of it rulers who are
motivated by their vested
interests. A example in this case is
the issue of revisiting the age limit
for appearing in CSS exams that
was reduced mindlessly by the
previous dictator to 28 years.
Contrary to the issue of condition
of graduation for contesting
elections, which was struck down
unanimously by our ruling elite, the
issue of granting some age relief
to the hundreds and thousands
of affected candidates is getting
no heed from our rulers.
The efficiency of our rulers in
protecting their personal
interests is matchless while public
interests do not seem their major
concern. Had there been some son
or nephew of our respected
rulers facing this age constraint,
the issue would have been solved
in no time.
Reduction in the age limit mainly
affects middle-class students
because they need more time to
be able to compete with students
coming from privileged educational
systems.
According to some press reports,
granting of age relaxation for the
forthcoming CSS exams is under
consideration.
I hope our rulers will spare some
time for those talented young
men and women who are facing
the bottleneck of age restriction
by removing it for good.

THIS is apropos of the letter, “CSS exam age restriction” (Sept 11). I second the writer’s opinion that politicians and policy makers take prompt decisions when their own vested interests are involved but they do not consider the grievances of the common man. Middle class and under-privileged students have been demanding for an age relaxation in the CSS exam.
The issue has been much highlighted through print media but all the broadcast has been falling on deaf ears and all efforts have gone down the drain with no positive outcome.

I request the Prime Minister to take immediate notice of the issue and relax the upper age limit for the coming CSS exam. DR. AMIR ALI AHMED Peshawar

sir i m very upset regarding the last date of submission .it is not mentioned on the ad.

dont b upset.FPSC will demand form submission in November by publishing a new ad.last year the last date of form submission was jan 1st 2010.u dont have to submit anything now.
