Before I discuss the books you ll need to go through, I want you to clear for yourself some Myths about this exam. You ll hear , or you may have already heard that its a ''low profile exam'',  or '' the mcqs are very vague'' , or '' the exam is just a luck stuff' ' , or ''cpsp has no standard of making mcqs and the paper'', and sooooo ooooon.I believed in these myths.

And while in exam,  I came to know that they were just, the Myths.

Oops,during the exam !

Learn it, that FCPS-I paper is a very well adjusted one. In my exam, there was not a single spelling/grammatical/formatting error. No MCQ was poor in any aspect (as people narrate that , the bad/incomprehensible mcqs you find in the mcqs prep book ''Dr Rabia Ali'' - the cpsp mcqs are the same, Its not so). And the arrangements made by CPSP for the examination were excellent.
