I guess the rules clearly mentioned that calculators were not allowed. Anyway, I think it is highly unfair to allow a bunch of people to save precious minutes and reduce chances of error by using calculator. It is a C-O-M-P-E-T-I-T-I-V-E exam for the love of God - and CSS for that matter.

I complained, in writing, to the Chairman.

Question 12(b) is completely wrong. There's X everywhere.
I'm done with FPSC's incompetence
What was your answer for Q12(b) then?

To be fair, I thought I'd do the same when I heard using calculators were allowed. But as I went through the paper, I realized there was absolutely nowhere a calculator would've helped D:

1 quetions ov percentage in mcqs portion was also wrong.
options were 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5.

An eyeroll.
There's just no way to do this without proper conditions.
I did attempt it though.

The closest answer was 22.5.

30% of 22.5 = 6.75
22.5 + 6.75 = 29.25

And since calculators weren't allowed, I simply rounded it off in my head and it was close to 30 D:

in statment it was 25%.
so 22.5 is not correct.

the question said that the profit was in Sale. means 25% of 30. so 22.5 was the right option!

What about 11 (a) iii ?

And what about that Disturbance objective. I don't think the answer was anywhere to be seen.
