Understanding the Phase-VI/2025 Tests
This phase includes both Screening (MCQ) tests and Written (Descriptive) tests. The type of test you take will depend on the specific post or “case” you have applied for.
- Screening (MCQ) Tests: These are multiple-choice-question exams designed to shortlist a large number of candidates.
- Written (Descriptive) Tests: These require detailed, long-form answers and are typically for higher-grade positions or professional roles.
The full list of cases (job posts) included in the FPSC Screening Descriptive Tests Phase-VI 2025 is available on the official FPSC website. It is mandatory for all candidates to check the list to confirm if their applied post is included.
For authoritative and trustworthy information, always refer to the official source. You can find the detailed schedule, list of cases, and your roll number slips (when available) directly on the FPSC portal.

How to Prepare for Your FPSC Test
With the test dates just a month away, it’s time to finalize your preparation. Here are a few tips based on our experience with past FPSC exams:
1. Verify Your Syllabus
Go to the FPSC website and find the exact syllabus for your case number. Don’t waste time studying irrelevant topics. Focus only on what is mentioned in the official syllabus.
2. Practice Past Papers
Past papers are the best way to understand the exam pattern, question style, and difficulty level. Time yourself while solving them to improve your speed, especially for the screening test.
3. Organize Your Documents
Don’t wait until the last day. Locate your original CNIC and your original bank treasury receipt (fee challan). You will not be allowed to enter the exam hall without these documents and your Admission Certificate (roll number slip).
