There are topics in every book but all of them are necessary
Paper 1 contains study and grip of :
1. Schools of thought
2. Psychology as science
3. Sensation
4. Perception
5. Learning
6. Emotions
7. Thinking
8. Memory/forgetting

10. Attitude
Paper2:
1. Frustration
2. Organizational psychology
3. Abnormal psychology
4. Mental disorder/treatment
5. Criminal psychology
6. Personality
7. Intelligence

Preparing methods:
1. Must analyze all the past papers in detail
2. Prepare a draft that contains questions from relevant topics and see the trend of the examining
3. 1979-2014….must make a handout of it…it will ease you in preparing
4. As there are many topics that seem harmless but in the papers they are asked with detail….
5. Keep a file of past papers
6. Now prepare topic wise from each chapter….don’t go for smart study…go for detail study….
7. Start with sher bano…as it is basic of the subject…
8. Then follow with rakhshanda sehnaz…it is superb….follow the notes making pattern from that book….
9. It is very well written….
10. Give a reading from morgan as well….
11. There are topics that are included only in asim sehrie book….
12. And they are missing in sher bano and rakhshnada shehnaz book….
13. Must prepare your notes from these books. Must read and understand each and every line written in these books and jot down the important points in your file…
14. Morgan has many daily life examples that can make you understand better many topics…

must prepare your handouts with time ....
try to write your question with full detail answer within 35 minutes...

1. reading
2. writing
3. memorizing
4. understanding
5. brain storming

these are the key methods for perfect preparation
take your time in understanding the topic...but defend your answer from every point that has been asked....
do not rely on just reading and understanding the topics....
must develop a habit of reading and writing....
initially it will take time...
but you will get used to of it....

I would like to add to above mentioned superb plan , you may take the course outlines from CSS forum syllabus section and then prepare each topic in a day or so and then read questions from past papers that how that topic is asked with what frequency , and maintain a file in this manner .
