What is CSS?
The Public Service Commission was set up for the first time in British India in 1926. After
independence, the Commission was established in Pakistan in 1947 under the provision of
Government of India Act, 1935. At present, the commission is functioning under article 242of the
constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan. It has been provided autonomy under the Rules of
Business, 1973 and FPSC Regulations, 1978 in its working. The Commission has also been given
administrative as well as, to some extent, financial autonomy to perform its functions independently.
Who is eligible to appear for the exam?

To apply for CSS Examination, a candidate should be;
• A citizen of Pakistan.
• Must hold at least a Bachelors Degree with the second division in any Faculty/Discipline from
one of the Pakistani Universities or an equivalent degree or comparable educational
qualifications of a foreign University.
• No candidate who has obtained a Third Division (or ‘D’ grade where result is declared under
Semester System) in his Bachelor’s Degree will be eligible for the Examination except in cases
where he/she has obtained a higher Division in Master’s Degree.
• The age limit for admission in CSS Examination is 21-28 years, which is relaxable upto 2
years for those who are already in Government Service and have completed 2 years service.
The relaxation is also available to candidates belonging to certain remote areas as defined by
Government.
Whether females are eligible for the posts announced by the Commission?
For CSS - they are eligible.
What is the fee for the exam?
The current fee is Rs. 1000/- for more information see Fee section of rules page.
How many subjects do I need to choose?
Subjects carrying 600 marks are compulsory while you have to choose subjects carrying 600 marks
among optional subjects.
How many attempts can I make?
You can make not more than three (03) attempts for the CSS exam.
Would my subject combination affect my choice of any occupational group?
No, your subject combination does not affect your choice for any specific occupational group. You can
chose any subjects and be considered for any group according to your marks and merit.
How should I select the subject?
For subject selection, keep in mind the following points:
• Try to have the subjects that you have studied before.

• Don’t ever go for “that easy subject”, try to find out its scoring value.
• Previous statistics show that subjects with 100 marks give more score than subjects with 200
marks.
• Science subjects are more scoring than their arts counterparts.
• People even have scored 2 marks in some subjects like Constitutional Law because they
thought it was too easy.
• Languages are usually high scoring subjects.
• Indo-Pak History does not usually result in a high score--avoiding it as generally helpful.
• However, other history subjects have better scoring averages.
What are the compulsory and optional subjects?
