CSS is a dream of many students during their studies, where very few pass the CSS
exam. Also, few don’t know which field to choose after their intermediate. The former
reason might include a lot of other factors, but the latter one is purely related to the
CSS Aspirants‘ preparation ease and scope during civil services.

Choosing the best field not only helps you in preparing your optional subjects but also
eases the job that you desire. Your degree will define all the measures of success in the
CSS exam. This content will describe the relation of choosing a particular subject with
other subjects and help you understand the connection of that field with the service
group you want to join. Let’s get into it.

BS international relation
There are twelve different service groups. Among these, the foreign service of Pakistan
is the want of every CSS aspirant. Aspirants love it because of the perks and benefits it
provides. FSP entertains its employees through the exploration of the world and the
prestige it owns. Therefore, you may be desiring to be a part of it.
You can join FSP easily if you have opted for international relations as in bachelor.
Choosing IR will help you cover Pakistan studies, government, and politics of
Pakistan, foreign policy of Pakistan, geography, introduction to the history, public
administration, international law or political science, etc. All these fields will help you
to lower the burden of interconnected subjects mentioned here.

So, if you choose IR as your field, it will significantly help you prepare for the CSS exam
and will pre-train you for the best bureaucratic strategies you would require in the
service.

BS English
Everybody knows that English is a crucial subject for passing the CSS exam. You do
require a strong command of all the proficiencies of the English language. Choosing BS
English literature may stand very useful from the exam’s perspective. Irrespective of the
boring poetry and classical English poems, this field will help you to broaden your
mindset. You would be highly engaged in immense reading throughout the BS
program.

By doing so, you would easily know the secrets of writing skills and be good enough at
reading and preparing other subjects. Also, you can cover the two compulsory
subjects, English Essay and English (Precis and Composition). Whereas in optional
subjects, the English language can easily be chosen which will cover your 100 marks.

BS Political science
Political science can contribute a lot to the CSS exam. It will be useful if you want to join
the foreign service of Pakistan (FSP), Pakistan administrative services (PAS), and the
police services of Pakistan (PSP).

Apart from this, this subject will assist you in the preparation of philosophy,
international relations, public administration, Pakistan’s foreign policy, Pakistan’s
ideology, law, logic or economy, etc.; choosing political science will, of course, lead you
towards a safe side.

BS Sociology
Sociology is one of the most accessible subjects for the CSS exam. You can learn a lot
of things that are currently in your mind about society and its development. It is a very
similar study as compared to latent learning in psychology. All the theory of sociology
explains our daily life activities, meetings, and social or cultural norms of our society.

Besides this, you would be able to prepare for psychology, criminology, and gender
studies during your bachelor’s degree program. This will make you understand
Pakistani culture in great detail. Moreover, it is a general subject. Thus, it can be useful
to join any service group.

BS Pakistan studies
Very few people tend to choose Pakistan studies as their graduation program. This field
has very little saturation as compared to other subjects. Apart from being in
compulsory subjects, it can be chosen as an optional subject to study. You will study
everything about Pakistan starting from its idea to creation and then from creation to
now.

You would cover the independence movement, political and constitutional

development in Pakistan, the geography of Pakistan, the history of Pakistan, Muslim
rule starting from Muhammad bin Qasim to Bahadur Shah Zafar.

What other subjects you can cover from Pakistan studies are Indo-Pak history and
current affairs. It would be helpful for any service group if you choose it as your
bachelor’s degree.

BS Defense and diplomatic studies (DDS)

This field is incredible for those who want to join the Military Lands & Cantonment
Group of the Pakistan Army. This field is related to military, national security, and
politics.

You will also cover international relations, foreign policies of major powers (Russia,
America, Turkey, etc.), modern warfare, terrorism, peace conflict or international
law, etc.

Law
Students of law are assumed half prepared for the CSS exam. You can choose law as
your major degree to pass the CSS exam easily. It covers a lot of optional subjects
which can be opted for the CSS exam. You would be able to cover constitutional law,
international law, criminal law, fundamentals of economics, or Islamic studies.
These subjects will directly or indirectly help you in the preparation of optional and
compulsory subjects. Whereas it can be useful for any service group.

History
Well, it is also a useful field for the CSS exam. It covers all the areas that are related to
history. For example, US history, British history, or Indo-Pak history. This field can be
useful for any service group.

All in all, these were the best fields that you can choose after intermediate for passing
the CSS exam. Apart from this, keep in mind that the English language is an essential
need of overall CSS. Additionally, you have to cover the content of these 12 subjects.
Neither you can pass the CSS exam if you know the English language, nor you can pass
if you have content only-you need both of them. You have to increase your analytical
skills and broaden your ideas through immense reading and strong English language to
score the best among thousands of CSS aspirants in Pakistan.
