If you answer it right then those marks were awarded to you. Questions in which they want a discussion or a detailed answer had 10 to 15 marks each. Rest of the marks were of dressing , fluency in English, & your analytical ability. Cross questions , i think , had no marks.

I am planning to opt Punjabi in both CSS and PMS for my next attempt. I needed notes and guidance as it is totally a new subject for me. But i have a real knack for Punjabi Sufi Poetry and i hope i can memorize the couplets. Please tell me a book that covers all the syllabus of Punjabi for bothPMS and CSS.

Coming to the interview my psychological went well. I have had a sound educational background with active participation in extracurricular activities, sports and social services with documentary proofs.
I performed satisfactorily in both written and interview of the assessment. And i had mock interviews before going for the real interview at a famous institute in Lahore. But i don't know what might have been the reason for my poor result in the interviews. I have a good knowledge of national, international politics, economics, science, IT, professional and international work experience. What does the panel want other than this ? i even scored better in the written. I simply fail to understand the reason.
I cannot recall any situation where i was impolite and was not making eye contact with the panel. I speak fluent English, Urdu, Punjabi, Chinese, Bengali and Gaelic. But it is totally unbelievable that i was rated so low by the panel.
After going through the whole process myself i now have doubts about the whole process of selection and this so called transparency that is advocated by this commission.
I was awarded 91, 96 , 89 and 93 marks in other interviews held by the same commission and its members for different posts of BS14, BS 16 and BS 17 posts and was recommended in all of the cases. This particular interview was a routine work for me but still you can see the marks 128/200. (pathetic)

a. Those who did remarkably well in written test got very low marks in the interview, therefore were excluded.

I must say the candidates must must file against the result.
