Changes to CSS exam format?

Letter March 05, 2015
Perhaps the Commission should clarify what exactly these planned changes are as soon as possible

ISLAMABAD: Competitive exams like the CSS provide a route into a very prestigious path of government service. That is why thousands of people take these exams every year. Some weeks ago, there were reports in the media that the Federal Public Service Commission, which supervises these exams, was planning some major changes to their format from 2016 onwards.

Given that these reports suggest that a complete revamp is in the offing, perhaps the Commission should clarify what exactly these planned changes are as soon as possible. This will greatly help the thousands of aspirants who plan to sit for the exams in 2016.
