PCS exams

Published January 9, 2019

APROPOS the letter regarding the above (Jan 5). I agree with the writer’s observations. The Sindh Public Service Commission’s conduct of the exam was a poor showing of its management skills, to put it mildly.

I sat the exam from Sukkur. I was shocked to see how close the candidates’ seats were arranged. The decorum expected in such exams was also missing. The candidates sitting at the back were making a lot of noise as they asked each other the answer to several of the MCQs. Naturally this disturbed the rest of the candidates.

I humbly request to SPSC authorities to take serious notice of the issue and ensure that such practices are not repeated in the future.
