Ur premise abt erecting barriers is what i refer2 as fallacious.
I dint comment on ur argument of young workforce v old1 so chapter closed.
Yes competition must b amongst worthy n FPSC 2007 report says dat 28% simple BAs finally passed CSS..if u can find any other definition of worthy than their result, hats off2 ur ability2 speculate (besides ur obvious talent at fuming as evident from ur post)
CSS competition must b restricted2 bachelors since the syllabus is up2 Bachelors level.(this forces me2 think dat instead da BAs should b protesting against the overqualified MA qualified candidates competing with them on equal terms but i would never do that since emerging successful by cutting off the layers of competition is unethical in my humble opinion.)
As4 other organizations prescribing MA as mandatory, they wish2 limit the applicant pool2 reduce the burdens of screening huge number of candidates. FPSC unlike these public sector organizations or MNCs wishes2 hunt talent from all corners.
And if my worthy friend is so hell bent upon making CSS a fight between the giants den y stay stagnant on just BA vs MA. Pick the cream by only allowing da graduates of selected prestigious universities only or prescribe years of work experience.. Y only go4 entry barriers which suit oneslf.
Thnx4 ur unsolicited piece of advice.

Yesterday, The spokesperson of FPSC declared that there will be no change in policy for CE 2011.She further said there there will be no relaxation in upper age limit i-e it will be 28 instead of 30.Only graduation is required in order to apply for CE 2011.

Well some people argue that in other countries the requirment for competitive exams is bachelors yes they are right but friends mind it that in almost all over that world the bachelor degree is copmrised of 3 or 4 years and in case of our country its 2 years so I think its a good decision that the minimum qualification for CSS must be masters.

Dear friends,

In regular bachelor program, almost every university now offers degrees in years exceptional cases are private programs..there should be requirement of years of education not of bachelor or masters..bcz some people have bachelor degree of 4 years (totaling 16 years ) and some have master degree (bach: 2 years and 2 years master hence totaling 16 years) ... so there should be requirment of number of years not of bachelor or masters...

when the new policy regarding ce 2011 is going to announced?shud they give ample time to prepare for the xams .I believe the new policy shud public as soon as possible.it must b public in 1st or 2nd week of july

AoA to All,
Sorry for saying such things per kehnay mai kia harj hai.degree requirement should be eliminated for css as it is done for MNA.(Degree degree hoti hai Asli Ho ya jali...CM Balochistan).If People can become MNAs and ministers on Bogus and Fake degrees and rule and legislate,then why r v making it a fuss.Start contesting elections and become the real executives, if u really want to change the course fo ur country...Belive me degree and age both would be no issue..................

@hamarapakistan i just talked to some senior official fpsc who denied any statement given by fpsc spokesperson to jhang multan newspaper negating the new policy ce 2011.he further said new policy has been submitted to some higher authorities and decision yet to b taken.

i think fpsc should announce a clear policy in this regard..

Well I called FPSC few days back. The concerned person for CSS department told me that new age policy is under consideration on which decision is yet to be taken. If FPSC is going to announce 16 years education as a pre-requisite for CSS, it shall not be implemented from 2011. In the fresh advertisement, it is evident that the cut off date is 1st January 2011. It means that on this aforementioned date who would be 21 years old is eligible. As far as upper age is concerned, there are chances that it would be increased from 28 to 30 years. I request all the members to wait for not more than a month, so that situation may be unveiled.
