Thank you, thank you so much for your insight. At times I also feel this way, because I have already prepared it. So instead of preparing a new subject if I put more effort into it then can surely get good marks. but then there is this other feeling that what if I don't get good marks just because of opting a non scoring subjects. Pms 2018 result looked like game of optionals. None had high score in pol. Science. Even second position holder who was pol.science major scored average in it. Most of the qualifiers had geography as an optional ( atleast the few I know) . But yes many qualifiers had pol.science as an optional as well. So at the end we can say its a game of luck along with one's dedication. If Allah wants to give it to you then nothing can stop it.

Pls consult my profile and previous posts on this forum. This writer is a two times PMS qualifier while the third attempt is still there but, unfortunately, he's gone a bit old to jump over the barricade of age 😏. If you know Khadija Hayat from KP? She got secured a slot in the FSP (through CSS) with this combo: 1. History of Pakistan and India; 2. Political Science; 3. Constitutional Law; and 4. Pushto. Political Science and Indo-Pak history has been considered as non-scoring since long but those who've got guts always stands out! One of my acquaintances got failed in Sociology in the last PMS ☹.
Bottomline: Just put your nose to the grindstone and then experience the miracle.
Good luck!

People should definitely opt for subjects they are inclined to there is no doubt about that. But it would be wrong to say that some subjects aren’t low scoring every time these exams are conducted. If you are an experienced person with these exams, I would be surprised to know that you don’t believe some subjects are poorly marked no matter how confident you are about it. With all the correct strategies you still get to score lower marks depending on the examiner. One should go for the subjects they are inclined to but at the same time keep in mind the scoring trend. That would be a wise thing to do and a part of strategy. One can always go for another subject of their liking as well. There are so many options to choose from.

Hey adil,
I have been following you for a long time on css forum. I seriously need your advice. I scored 130 in pol sci in css 2019. However my score in last pms was a disaster. Because of low marks in pol sci I got deprived of the allocation even though I scored 890.
Being a veteran what would u suggest that should one go with the same optionals or go with something new?

Different people, different approaches. I respect your opinion but I don't agree.

Good to hear 😊.
I scored 886 in 2013 but failed to get through.
In competitive exams, always remember that "You should know something about everything and everything about something". Just drop a message in my mail box and I'll share what it takes to excel in these very exams as per my experience.
Thank you!

Alright I will take that as a learning point from someone who has qualified multiple times.

Here, I wanna add my opinion, though CSS 2021 will be my first attempt and also ready to give a chance to kp PMS. Our thinking, discerning style, expressing, evaluating, interpreting and conveying differ from each other. So, it will be a wise option to say that someone can get impressive marks in the subject he or she interested in, rather than saying that the subject is high scoring or low scoring. These are my views. I am not implementing them on all of you. My strategy opting for optional was very strange. I didn't even see the entire syllabus, just discerned the reason why this subject is clicking to my mind and I opted it. It may be silly for some people but I am satisfied.

What about your CSS journey? We know that you have mentioned it in your previous posts but sorry, we haven't enough of time to seek the posts in which you have told about your CSS journey, cos there are lots of posts.
