You can follow two approaches, i.e.

1- Select topics to study each day for 2,3 or 4 subjects & complete those topics no matter ho much time those topics take either 3 hours or 13hrs per day. But be realistic in choosing topics to cover in one day. You may change the group of subjects say after 15-20 days after covering a significant portion when you feel bored. You may comeback to these subjects later on.

2- You can decide the number of subjects & the number of hours you have to give to each of the selected subjects per day. Again I would recommend you to be realistic in deciding the total number of study hours. You may change the group of subjects say after 15-20 days after covering a significant portion when you feel bored. You may comeback to these subjects later on.

IMO, first approach is better. And also make notes of your own by wrinting everything with your hands. This will help you remember all that you study.

Regards!

think over the combination you have opted, especially economics. Try to consult the seniors regarding it.

@ saryal banda
Yes it will help to keep boredom far away!!! thanks 4 ur suggestions!!!! i have a good library of my Dada Jan which help me to work on CA-PA-SOC-IR...!!! THANKXXX !!!

@ asghar khan
sir,I FIRSTLY did GO THROUGH PAPERS OF ECO...its the sub of my interest and aptitude...!!!! sineres are not answering!!!

Brother i would suggest you do not opt international relation as it has not been a
scoring subject. economics will be fruitful if you have command over concepts.

Avoid use of "Netspeak" or other "cute" grammar or spelling (For example: writing "R U a woman?" instead of "Are You a woman?").

Users should not post a topic/reply in CAPITALS, the reason being is that this is considered as shouting.

I do not want to dwindle your hopes, but i would suggest you to consult the seniors. Economics of Pakistan will surely betray you. In addition, economics is one of the lowest scoring subjects. I am a masters in economics from Bahauddin Zakariya University and I know the intricacies which students face regarding this subject.

@ ashgar khan
ok.. one more question.. if u can answer.. i did my graduation {with optional math,stat,eco}for some unlucky reasons i have to discontinue my studies,..but from that day to today.. i aim for CSS!!! will it be better for me to go for thorough preparation of CSS or should i first complete my post graduate education[msc eco or maths]will be highly obliged if u can help me in this regard???

it is my humble and sincere suggestion to you that you should first aim for M.Sc Eco. When you have gone through the subject minutely, it will surely open many paths including the-much-dreamt CSS.
