Thanks dear. but these interviews experiences are of CSS. Are psychological tests and viva for PMS conducted with the same pattern? Isn't there any difference? All those aspirants who have gone through this process in KPPSC, please share your experiences and test pattern.

Thank you Darksider for sharing your interview experience with us. Tell us about the panel how many members were there? 2ndly did you get the call letter for the final interview there? or it will be given later to you? If yes then what is your final interview date?

There were two female psychologists. Those candidates who's document were complete got their final interview letters and their interview will be on 19 September. However, in my case, they lost my DPC, that is why I couldn't get my final interview letter. I provided them my DPC and then they said they will dispatch my letter via post. My interview date will be most probably on 28 September.

Darksider bro!

You had also qualified last time. What was your score and merit number? 2ndly How do you compare your last experience with the recent PMS2016? Which one was tough and how? What do you think about marks in written portion of PMS2016, as i heard people saying marking is low.

Other members of the forum are also requested to kindly share their experience of group discussion topic and psychological interview.

My score in PMS 2013 was 642 in written and 130 or so in interview. As PMS 2016 was my second attempt and most questions in most of my optional papers was repeated from PMS 2013, I guess the exam went OK for me as compare to last time. Exam seem to be easy for me this time except for Pakistan Affairs paper. This time optional subjects like Psychology, Indo Pak History, IL, English Literature and Sociology etc seem to be hit pretty hard, and almost every other candidate must have atleast one of these subjects so it is natural that score might be moderate this time. Because, I remember, last time majority of failed DMC had 700+ marks, and this time I have seen only a very few DMCs of failed candidates who crossed 700. But you never know about the passed one. There will be some brilliant candidates who might score 760+ this time too.
