Suggestions for Preparation - AD MoD 2014
 

Assalam-u-alaikum,
I have started this thread purely for discussion to tackle this test. As time is running fast, so we should not waste our precious time in trivial issues.
Keeping in view, the previous paper of 2010 the test comprised of 2 papers
i. CA/PA paper - Purely Subjective
ii. Maths+Eng+CA+PA+Isl+GK - 100 Marks MCQs paper.

But as this time, NTS is going to take test so may be it will be a bit different. So, we will have to wait for the official announcement of Paper pattern and syllabus. Since, test is on 2 March 2014 (as mentioned on NTS website) so for timebeing i have started with these books, as i already have them.

1. Islamic Studies MCQs by Imtiaz Shahid
2. Caravan GK MCQs (All subjects combo)
3. IndoPak+PA MCQs by Sohail Bhatti
4. EDS MCQs by Rab Nawaz Samo.

Now, what u suggest which subject needs to be prepared first, keeping in mind the fact that NTS will conduct this test?

Also, suggest that what should be done for Maths and English portion? How to tackle this area of study? Any relevant books you can think of?

(PS: Please keep this thread purely for studies related discussion, so we can get maximum out of it Unlike other threads which were spoiled by hundreds of repeatitive posts regarding eligibilty criteria.)

keeping in view the NTS role,they have been conducting mcq's based test.so it can be predicted that the test will be mcq's based.For maths portion study and practice jehangir's Gat book,English is a vast subject anything can be asked from anywhere but you must have knowledge about sentences,basic grammar rules etc.Anyway i cannot start my study for the test now as i am busy in the preparation for css 2014.catch you up after 22nd February :)

For english and Mathematics GRE Book will be useful for test.

I am using Dogars book for NTS preparation. And have downloaded GRE edition 12 for Maths and English. But english in GRE book is quite difficult.
NTS also has a guide book for MCQ's.

Yesterday, I inquired of NTS call center regarding test pattern. They said that sample paper would be uploaded on the website soon.

I think the test pattern will cover the following subjects:

English
Basic Arithmetic
Analytical reasoning
GK (CA, EDS, PA)

can we do preparation from the NTS books available?

Yup of course there are some good books in market :-) dogger brothers NTS are good books

Which book is best for SI post ?

p
 

iam referring aptitude book of carvan series..and nts dogar book ...and also papering for essay and current affair paper it is possibility they might take subjective test......i don't have knowledge regarding math so i left it on risk

NTS NAB test
 

my dear freinds nts conducted nab test. so the nab test was comprised of GK,IQ, analytical reasoning. So may be now this time the test of MoD may have portion of IQ, and Analytical Reasoning.

p

GK book isn't available on that website and for NTS, u r recommending the GAT book???

Dogar's GAT book would be enough to cover the English portion.. It also contains vocabulary , maths and analytical reasoning is also in that book

[QUOTE=saimabaloch;687517]iam referring aptitude book of carvan series..and nts dogar book ...and also papering for essay and current affair paper it is possibility they might take subjective test......i don't have knowledge regarding math so i left it on risk[/QUOTE]

Maths is not that difficult .. It is like 10th or fsc level questions. If you know the tricks you can clear maths.. I would suggest you to practice Dogar's GAT book for maths questions .. download its pdf..
How are you preparing for essay? :roll Any book that you can recommend that can be used to prepare it in short time?

test pattern
 

i think these jobs don,t belong to ISI. therefore test pattern will be quite different from previous one.for the first time NTS is going to conduct these tests, so it is expected that result would be announced very soon as per NTS policy. so, very soon, short listed candidates for interview will be finalized. these jobs will not take much time. i think, in next 5 to 6 months posts will be filled. how you people think?
