Last time when the result was announced, the threshold was 160/400 i.e 40 percent marks. That was the best bet but still some candidates went and protested against the policy of kppsc. In the end owing to pressure, the merit was downgraded to 80/400. In my opinion that was one of the worst decision on part of kppsc and because of that many non serious candidates became eligible for the written.
Last time the failed candidates of screening used to mock the qualifiers by stating "why are you afraid of us, if you can beat us in screening you can beat us in written" khair the same logic is being used again here. Nevertheless, it is a dejavu situation all over again.

So you are not in favour lowering the passing marks to 40?

She's a lawyer advocating a cause which is her job I guess or maybe she is prospecting clients :p

Unless we are a multinational company we cannot afford her services..should utilize her energies elsewhere. 😂🤣😂

40 percent is quite reasonable for an aspirant to score if he is going to appear for a competitive exam. In my opinion even 40 percent is too low. Should be 50% like all other tests such as taken by FPSC or NTS to be considered eligible for next stages. But this 25/1 brought the threshold to I guess 65% or above. Which I personally think is unfair because I feel bad to see two times PMS qualifier out of the ground just because they were not aware about 25/1 or thought 50% and above would suffice. I think this policy was announced after the test was taken, which is also unfair.

So she advocates against 25/1 policy and it happens to change. She qualifies the written and does not get allocated, instead another candidate takes her position who was below earlier merit from the screening test... That would be some sight

For 2018 I was totally against the policy of 20
Percent. If a person cannot get the bear minimum of 40, then what can you expect from him/her in the written and it proved right when result was declared in july 2019.

This time the situation is quite different. We have a cut off of 65 plus which is shocking to be honest.

Majority of testing agencies like ots, pts, nts etc use 60
Percent criteria for interview and etc. However, since this is a screening exam hence a simple 50 can do the job better. Regarding 25/1 policy, the notification was shared on multiple forums but only one individual jalauddin filed a case against the absurd policy of 25/1. It was because of jalal that kppsc became a little bit worried. The exact date of notification was 9th march, 2021. Even i got the copy of the notification via sources

For all the new aspirants and x qualifiers like myself. My simple advice for pms is, try to score maximum in written. No matter what because majority of written qualifiers will not be allocated by a margin of 5-10 marks for each zone.

The competition gets tough in the later stages and only written marks can help you get a slot.

Yes 50% is reasonable and would only bring forth the candidates who are serious and should score this much at least if they are to appear for a competitive exam.

Did not know it was announced in March 2021. I thought it was announced after the screening test. In that case, the tweet girl loses her argument because PMS 2021 then becomes prospective. If any change is made to 25/1 policy right now, that would be due to the protest or the grievances that come forward.
