in fact, this is one more good instance by new chairman. in india and in other countries this test is being taken since a long time.
some good decisions by chairman

1-optional subjects will not be the sole determiner of allocation.interview marks ranging between 100 -250 will surely decide the final outcome.

2-difficulty level of all papers increased manifolds.securing 90 marks in Arabic , Persian , and philosophy and such other subjects will not be an easy task.

3- screening test will lessen the burden on management staff of exam and paper checkers thus resulting in good quality in minimum possible time.

Bhagwan Das, Hazar khan khoso and Fakhruddin g Ibraheem all were good judges, and there integrity was beyond question but their competence level was below mark..

hope we will see some more good changes in coming years.a time will come when no any deserving candidate will be complaining the flawed examination system.

This is crazy for younger candidates. One has to be eligible before the screening this means and most degree results come out in august to september. That technically means a delay of an entire year minimum for all younger candidates. Or does the fpsc allow ''results awaiting'' for those who've ended their degrees but not received the final results as yet?

the concept of screening test seems right bt the content for this test is quite rotted.....fpsc should give more weightage to analytical questions to test the mental strenght of the candidate.......rather than asking mcqs of isl,pa,ca n vocabulary.....they are simply promoting crammers

Fpsc has taken an excellent decision to sort out candidates eligible for this mighty exam but question arises for candidates of css2013 .They would be dubious whether to go for screening and they have to prepare from a very different perspective.what u guys say?

What is this yar... Hum logon pey already itna burden hota hia study ka ab screen test k lia alag se mind set karo. they are making things complicated day by day. Is say behtar hai online test ya phir direct interviews ley lain. Itni tension to nahi ho gi.

What about people who turn 21 after the application deadline for the Screening test? Also, what about people who have not received the degree by the deadline for the Screening Test?

it means degree completion necessary b4 screening test?????

Lots of questions are yet to be answered, but the screening test is going to be quite difficult! Because looking at objective portions of CSS papers, I dont think they can be called as easy!
But the real thing will open up once FPSC come up with the passing criteria for the test. Lets see what they have in the Pandora box!

Good.If are not able to be CSP we will come to know at start rather than after 1 and half year

Another good point is that your attempt will not be counted either, because I think screening test will not be counted as an attempt!
