• In this case, you can quote the IPCC-2007, 2014 Reports, etc regarding Global Wanning
which is the best argument for your essay as Global wanning is fact.
• Sometimes, there are essays like Democracy is culture rather than process
(CSS, 2012).
• Such type of essays should be avoided as students are unable to understand the topic.
• Such essays demand a lot of attention as candidates have to prove democracy is a
culture in developing countries whereas in developed countries it is process.
Some times, essay like 'Meaning and purpose of education (CSS-2013)' was asked.
• In this context, students need not to give causes, effects and suggestions. Students just
need to define the meaning and its purpose only.
• I observed many times if a student prepares an essay education, causes, effects and
suggestions and when the essay like 'Meaning and purpose of education (CSS-2013)'
was asked then student writes that causes and effects. In this case, students fail because
examiner did not ask to give causes or effects as examiners is asking about meaning and
purpose. So student must think what the examiner is asking before attempting paper.
Some times, essay like Democracy of the people, for the people and by the people (PMS -
2012) was asked.
• In this case, students' outline must be revolved around the meaning like democracy for
people (welfare state, speedy justice, access to fundamental human rights, etc) and
democracy by the people (representative elected by people, significance of vote, etc)
• I saw students write causes and take pakistan examples while the examiner is asking
something different and general about democracy as its function, prerequisite, etc.
• So student should be careful while answering such questions.

• During CSS-2013, 14, 15 & 16, those essays are asked which depend on the critical
thinking of the students. Now cramming and memorising essays are discouraged by the
examiners. In these essay, students need to build their critical analysis skills as these
essays purely depend on students' critical ability.
• Hence, students had better practise and get such types of essays checked by a CSS
English teacher and making outline of these essays are appreciating.
