Dear Members,
I am going to share my psychological experience with you.
It was on Dec 05 2012.
[COLOR="Blue"]Day 1:[/COLOR]
Reporting time was 7:30 am.
First of all, they checked our original documents.(CNIC,Matric,FA,BA,MA,Domicile).we also submitted 4 security clearance forms,6 passport size pictures,application form,educational performa etc.These all documents were sent by FPSC along with Psychological letter.
After this we were guided to a test room,where we were given different writing activities.
Here goes the detail:
[COLOR="Blue"]Session 1[/COLOR]:
[COLOR="Blue"]A) [/COLOR]Personal Performa (candidates were asked to update their personal information…job related information, preferences and address related information).They took back this Performa after 10 minutes.
[COLOR="Blue"]B)[/COLOR] Intelligence Test: there were 80 questions in this test(Mathematical or number series,coding enconding,%age,ratio etc.) These were simple questions.
[COLOR="Blue"]C)[/COLOR] Sentence completion Test: I don’t remember the exact digit but I think they were 35 in number and time was very short….again exact time is not in my mind ..10 or 12 minutes 
[COLOR="Blue"]D)[/COLOR] Yes,No ? statements: These were 180 statements and we were asked to complete this test in 45 minutes. These were simple statements e.g

After these activities there was a short break of 10-15 minutes
[COLOR="Blue"]Session 2:[/COLOR]

Thanks a lot andleeb for sharing your experience. Please can you elaborate the process of group discussion and command task in detail.

@AQ47
Discussions were open discussions and anyone can start discussion ....there was no direction to start from this or that side.Candidates were at their own will to contribute in the discussion or not.
Same for the command task ....any volunteer can start it.This is you who decide when to go for your presentation.

@Ednan
This interview was about my personality,my background,my interests etc
