About the Pakistan Testing Service

Pakistan Testing Service conducts recruitment and screening tests for a wide range of federal and provincial departments, autonomous bodies and private organisations.

PTS papers usually combine English, quantitative and analytical ability, general knowledge, Islamiat and Pakistan Studies, with a subject portion where the post requires one.

Since PTS administers tests for many different clients, the surest guide is always the candidate information bulletin for your specific test — but the general portion draws on the same core subjects covered here.

Subjects to prepare for PTS

These are the subjects that commonly appear in the general portion of PTS papers, ordered roughly by how much attention they usually deserve. The official syllabus for your specific post is always the authority.

Posts commonly filled through PTS

  • Departmental recruitment tests
  • Clerical & support staff posts
  • Teaching posts
  • Screening tests for autonomous bodies

Indicative only. Posts and eligibility change with every recruitment cycle — check the current advertisement on the official website.

A preparation plan that works

  1. 1

    Start with the heaviest subject, not the easiest

    For PTS that usually means English. Work through its topics one at a time rather than sampling questions at random.

  2. 2

    Use past papers as your diagnostic

    Practise the past-paper mode for a subject before the general mode. It shows you the level and style examiners actually use, which recalibrates how you study everything else.

  3. 3

    Let the evaluation choose your next session

    After a few sessions your topic-wise correction rates will make one weakness obvious. Go there next. Repeat until nothing is under fifty per cent.

  4. 4

    Revise in 1-Liner mode in the final week

    Do not attempt new questions the night before. Sweep whole topics in reading mode instead — it covers far more ground per hour and keeps your confidence intact.

PTS preparation — common questions

Is PTS preparation different from FPSC or PPSC preparation?
The content overlaps heavily. PTS papers usually weight aptitude — verbal, quantitative and analytical — a little more, while commission papers weight Pakistan Studies, Islamiat and general knowledge more. Preparing the core subjects covers both.
