FPSC is not perfect. Neither is any other examination system in the world
many international exam systems are far better and have less ambiguity ,uncertainty and unpredictability.

same panel,same candidate,same psychological and different scores are not even near to normal what to say of perfect.
same preparation,same input in exams but different marks (low/high scoring factor or examiner factor).

i can quote here USMLE,PLAB,SAT,GRE,AMC,GMAT,LSAT etc so many international exams in which one gets approximately or even exact marks or percentage according to his/her preparation.even indian exams are far better.
CSS exams are....were better in the past,when standards and criteria were not compromised. but 2010 & 11................

It's not only RBD who decides the Interview Score. He has at his discretion 150 marks while other two members have 75 each. Accusing him of bias and prejudice is sheer injustice to his person and repute both. If you have evidence against him, bring it forth.

this distribution is not valid.they also have discussions regarding giving final marks to aspirants in interview.i have quoted examples where panel has already made mind before the viva according to psychological report. i have not accused RBD only but the whole panel. his statements regarding psychological assessment are on the record,ask anyone from 39th commons.


The problem is that it's too easy to blame others - too hard to see our own faults.

If you have problems with the panel,
A) Don't sit in the examination/appear for viva
B) File & suit and prove your them incompetent
C) Solve your problems before reappearing before the same panel.



yes,it is very easy to blame others and hard to see our own faults even if OURS is a society ,system or whatever . rightly said sir.

a guy who scored 200+ with the same panel has not solved his problems and reappeared to get only 165.

one passes this exams thinks it fair and does not bother on commenting faults or flaws or favouritism. even in top 100,there are aspirants who are victims of strange and unpredictable marking.

accepting defeat is not a problem but learning mistakes or faults in ourselves or in the system is a different thing.status quo is a better option always.

i cannot quote here examples because i don't have proof/evidence but people in 39th commons and even few in css-2011 know what i am talking about. evidence is needed to prove strange marks in interviews and now even in written. Personality,confidence,attitudes and many other things don't support those marks.

anyhow, i end this here because i don't have proofs or evidence.
Regards

as I expected a quick short reply and jumping at conclusion and not getting what i was about to say. Well said.
I answered it your question in the thread. Go to court for what. Challenge the perception of Judge " who can not err". Read thread my friend completely. I think you just read the last line. Will any judge try to blemish a cjp ? tarnish his musings? what evidence will I show them. "Slander" him for what ? He can err for he is human. why do not you understand. Certainly you would have asked something else if you have read it thoroughly and tried to comprehend what I was saying. If i said only that he is prejudiced you question might be correct. I in fact answered it inside thread. that perception of panel to good scorer were wrong. You can say so; for you know it will lead nothing. what was done was in close room. their attitude their capriciousness was well questionable for at least those who have reasonable chance to allocate with solid score which is obviously is greater than the 600s Candidate. Come with an argument gentleman. Not with childish retorts

You are correct. I did not read your reply because i do not have time for unsubstantiated ramblings. If you cant prove anything and dont have any evidence, what are you doing here then?

Baseless allegations on such personalities are scornful & condemnable. Please come with proof.

Would any court will ever stigmatize RBD as incompetent to judge CSS Candidate?. I understand your faith and "reverence" for him. But tell you truth your commetn is left handed Biases are there. Elderly do make mistakes and cover them for their seniority

and about not giving exam I do not think I should even comment on it.

Many people who fetched good marks in interview will certainly disagree when I ask to juxtapose the interview of 200+/600s and 100+/700s . They will question the similarity of their interviews and bring attitudes psychometics and other things. Cool arsenal. Deadly Doctor, rightly said about the credibility and even the capracious attitude of RBD. He is human? Is he not? Serving in Judiciary does not purge him into an angel with big white feathers? His perception can be faulty. Now proof evidence. dear I challenge if the all interview were recorded and presented to a really incompetent authority. The court room would laugh and would see in awe how they are deciding the fates. what type of evidence do you think we can provide? can you contest ISSB, or any international exam. let alone simple BISE.How many chances of fair trial.

We have only epidemological data and this alone you have. We ask to compare it. and you simply invoke upon the very competent ministers of justice that they are right. every 700+ was kind of unable to perform . this is humorous. if you come on psychology let me explain you. suppose you are interviewer, 600s candidate appear before. You find something unusual occult out world thing in him which is waiting to be tapped by you. who personality would have been lopsided without its discovery. He had good communication "skills" and lot of things that moved RBd along with the gem he had which is missing in lot of people. Now comes 700s bracket man. Having qualified in primitive nature of human being say it hard work. which is quite common. So belittling thing which in comparison with gem which you find a person who was not able secure good marks. Good scorer of interview call it attitude, positivism, restraint, confidence all psychological market soap which is as well depicted in the cartoon,may i say. Our reponses to angry animal are naturally similar. but when we go to RBD who is beyond any prejudice who does not feel exhausted and who maintsained the canons of equality on justice on his shoulders. flanked with him is Saud Goher and Mian sab. the arches of course. It makes me feel funny when I see that people scoring 600+ are all sudden so skilled to bridle the panel and are very confident, or if he was so moved to find that particular gem which we have not. Handwork was not just the category which he think is worth of any of his esteemed fancy. People do handwork from time Eon but "Gem" is something which low performer of written has and high performer has not. Gem is compound of psychological traits which alone are benchmark to seriously decide the fate of an "industrious" candidate . 5 is greater than 4 we cant say 5 is greater in size cosmetic appearance. 4 is less. its simple maths. its clear that 600+ and 700+ are different in exam in which everyone had opportunity and given fair chance. But what in interview. if some kind of zealous attempt is made to contrast the conservative thinking of panel by a 700s Candidate. he is taken as over smart , undesirable. Not Good. ha ha.
If the same does 600s Candidate well done Stupendous. how original how creative. the evidence for it is experience which you have to trust. I shared an answer of question regarding Israel acceptance a radical explanation by me was killed by RBD And same radical answer by my friend was lauded by comment Gentleman you answer is ingenuous. he truthfully told me he photostatted my opinion he scored good marks. Now everyone will say his overall interview will be different than me. "Of course" but just check the replies the contrast in responses. Its indeed funny when you refresh in mind the Gem. Obviously I lacked that and he had in it. and my friend says," He simply liked it." and lets take another example an already servant scores 220+ or even ++ He has better of everything which we have not. its ridiculous. Interview were roughly same. Who admits that he dropped questions or the questions he answered were right. The new "atmosphere" might have trimmed them to excellence, which we "lacked" and the perception of panel was so robust that they isolated the key Majon and they showered riches to their point of views which were unthinkable and very thought provoking.

Much can be said on it. Here is another thing a person who had crises in life. Abandoned excellent careers which psychologists and perhaps panel wanted their offspring to be. Their biasedness can not be quantified . They were infuriated that people abandoning such resplendent career to join civil service. they must be some delinquent souls. because they are not doctors engineers or CAs or they just did not want to be. they just "examined' ones on the basis of their psychological perceptions and yes I must say biases which they do not understand themselves and they penalize you for this.

In nutshell Redmax I like you. but not your arguments you can never substantiate 200+ marks of same person getting 165. do not you able to see that the person was given the tag of 200+ earlier to stamp that his psychological traits and educational acumen is up to the mark. 165 he gets this time for different clothes and different responses he gives in comparison with person with mighty big gem scoring in 600s. it laughable not what can I say noddable. perhaps many 700+ resent on this what was in his mind when he knew he could be in top 4 5. and he flunked them out of allocation list to accomodate 600s Gemy people .

I did not mean to attack on personal basis anyone not RBD. its controversy . Deadly doctor is true in his saying.
Panel is human. with wishes biases and prejudices as we have when we advocate for 700+. its true. if knowledge fails to substantiate your success and your so called interview performance where you "overcame" Rbd is simply sham.
the long and short. Interview was prejudiced!
you really have a problem in communicating your self as no one would have read your whole post.

I my humble opinion, as good score in one subject does not ensure replicating marks in other subjects, in the similar manner overall good marks in written does not make a candidate eligible of good marks in interview.
One has to prove himself.

Its simple.

Default I think it goes this way!

WALLAHO KHAIRUR RAZIKEEN

Dont we beleive in it? as a muslim i think we all must believe in it. Allah decided my Rizk in PAS so i will get it either RBD is happy or not with my written score. Likewise if Allah has decided my Rizk in any other group then RBD will act accordingly to help me reaching to that specific place. I dont know how we ignore this ALLAH'S WILL FACTOR.

I am sorry but this really goes this way and RBD and all are just the part of the game to execute the plans of ALLAH, which are the best without any doubts.

thanks a lot for reading the whole post of mine and please now stop complaining as many are still ready to have post in Railways even to be called CSP. Allah nay itni izzat de de k aap qualifiers may hain or aap log hain k os k shuker k bajaye na shukri kiye ja rahy hain.

Well this is an interesting debate, until now i myself has not been able to figure how they judge people during interview, but i personally think psychological test has a "psychological impact" on the panel. It provides them background of the candidate at least. Honestly, my written score is pretty average, but it has nothing to do with my intelligence level because i couldn't prepare well. My psychological however, was v good, I answered all the questions well and projected myself as an enthusiastic and "optimistic" person. And guess what, they asked me about Pakistan painters and European painters during psychological interview and a lot about fine art, creativity vs, wisdom. Obviously i loved these questions becz i had been a fine arts student. Then my interview had "15" questions from English literature. I did tht well as well.
You need to be versatile, don't forget tht u r there to get a job and not just telling them list of facts.

yes, you are right. good marks in written does not mean that one can also score good marks in interview as well. i passed university with distinction but when i went for an interview ...... it was a big shame.
i wont blame the interviewers. they asked very easy questions. it was i who was not prepared. i know my weakness and thats what i worry about in css. iam worried about the written papers but more than that iam worried about the psychological and the interview because consulting the past papers gives me an idea about the questions but interview is quite different, instant questions from any subject and a quick answer
Besides , the objective of both the tests is different.
in written they test your knowledge while in interview they test your knowledge as well as verbal abilities, interpersonal communications etc.

i havent read the whole thread but i feel that people who have got good marks in interview are loving and admiring the penal and others who could not get or their loved ones could no get good marks are criticizing.

As far as i am concerned i think i had committed ablunder by writing a joke on president of pakistan so i got only 120 where as i was very good in group discussion, command task, all candidates kept me in top 3.

But panel just hated my joke so they gave me so less marks that with score of 682 there should not be any chance of my allocation.
well i must accept my blunder even though i feel that punishment was too strict !! haha but thats what CSS is all about!

Though a friend of mine could not even utter a single word in group trask and command task but had 180 in viva!

yeah i was also told by Bhagwan das sb that psycologist has said that i m below average

Those who have scored well in interview must not boast for many people talented than them have failed or obtained depressingly less marks than them.They must be grateful to Allah for His munificence and benevolence.Indeed they deserve this glory yet how can we forget so many better people have been unlucky as they couldnt get good marks.
They who have failed or got less marks owe it to a strange twist of fate.They must be patient for Allah must have something better for them in store.

Default My Observation of Successful and Unsuccessful Candidates of Interview

As far as my experience is concerned,it was the psychological this year which played a decisive factor in interview marks.I have unshakable resolve that key to getting good marks in Viva lies in good psychological.I tried to behave gently and elegantly in Viva and portrayed myself as a genuine lover of art,humane,a book lover,gentle,compassionate,confident and optimistic fellow in my Psychological Viva and written.Besides,one must fill psychological traits forms intelligently and they must not depict that one possess a dual personality or one is attributing qualities to oneself which one never possess.
I had average written marks.Also my interview with Panel did not go well.Mian Sb and Saud Gohar Sb frowned at my answers.Geography was my subject and I was unable to answer anyone of four answers which RBD asked yet I obtained 208 marks.It happened as my psychological interview went exceptionally good and I handled all the questions very well which were thrown to baffle me.

Holder of position No 11 which is blind fellow wrote in his form that one of his bad qualities was that he was a habitual drunkard !He performed with excellence in group task and gentlemen was honoured with 229 marks.
A highly talented girl who got 685 in written got only 145 in interview.She performed brilliantly in command task and she possessed the best of conversation skills.Unluckily,she was not being given a chance to speak in group discussions and in a fit of disappointment and frustration she raised her hands while seeing panel.The act was done to imply that why she was not given the chance to speak and this particular act might have sealed the fate of exceptional candidate.
Another friend who got very good written marks went so bossy in command task.His arrogant attitude was trembling on the margin of rudeness and all of us were astonished.He also got less score.
Another candidate came late in both days and was taken to task by psychological panel.

One must carry himself with elegance,passion,human dignity and confidence in psychological interview.30 to 40 minutes are too less for panel to judge and evaluate the caliber of candidate as he might be under stress and might perform less than his abilities.So panel is dependent on the reports of psychological panel who are expert psychologists and have observed the candidate for full two days.
