This Hub Contains Effective Tips and Pointers to Pass the Civil Service Examination (CSE) Prof and Subprof Levels
The Civil Service Examination that is given in the Philippines is indeed a tough nut to crack; the passing rate over the years had dipped drastically, no thanks to the high 80% mark, one should hurdle. The average passing rate is somewhere from 8% to 30%, and this makes the test formidable and prestigious. Why not? Passing the examination will give a potential government employee or current employee that hasnt pass the examination yet the rights to get a permanent job in the government, and gain access to promising privileges like promotions and salary increases. This acid test proves to be very difficult for most since it can be likened to an IQ test where accumulated knowledge from the field of Mathematics to the English Language may play a vital role in passing. Being an English speaking country, the English language is given great importance in the test. Reading Comprehension, sentence structure, and vocabulary forms a good portion of the examination. One of the greatest obstacles in passing the examination is the Mathematics part of the examination, since this offers a lot of solving employing various techniques in solving progressions, linear equations, ratio and proportions and many more.

Those who dont read good books have no advantage over those who cant.

Here are some important and practical ways, tips and pointers to maximize your chances of passing and overcoming the CSC exam.
Gather as many review materials as you can, the most current the better. Look for review materials that are teeming with typical test questions that are similar to the actual examination. Review, review and review. Your future is at stake here, and it is wise to use your time very well. Review without let up as much as possible. Moreover, the exam calls for storing knowledge, constant reading and math problems solving. This is a marathon game and only the well-prepared ones are bound to pass. Superior IQ will not guarantee you a passing score.

Dont rely on prayers and luck. God only helps those who help themselves. Be realistic, you are up against a real examination and faith without hard work is useless. Additionally, passing the exam with pure guesswork is a disaster. You already flunked the exam even with out lifting your pencil if you take the examination without preparations. There is no way you can pass the examination without hurdling Mathematics first. It is true that this subject is difficult and there is no doubt about that. But there is always a way to tame this subject and that is with patience and practice. Solve as many problems as possibly you can. Math has something to do with getting experience and maturity, the more you solve problems the better you can be. Dont memorize solutions but be familiar with the principles and concepts. The only thing that is memorized in mathematics are the formulas. Be spontaneous with your solutions; make sure that your answers emanates from your mind. Many hate this subject very much, but if you are good on this, your chance of passing is already bolstered. If you can afford to shell out some fee to get the help of an expert tutor, go ahead. This move will give you an outright edge since you will get good answers about some of your questions with your reviews. Ask previous test takers about what are being asked in the recent examination they took. This gives you the trend and possibly the style of the test givers. While you reviews make sure you are eating well and getting ample rest and sleep.If you are healthy you are capable of storing more knowledge that are vital in passing the test. Before the examination, be sure you know your room assignment. Avoid being late since the examination contains many questions. Missing some time because of tardiness, might prevent you from not answering some of the questions or prevent you from from giving the best answers. During the examination make sure you are calm. Avoid being nervous and intense, it is understandable to be pressured but this will not serve you well as time goes by. Hold your nerves will yah, and answer every question to the best of your abilities. To be efficient with your time, answer the easy ones first, you can afford to leave some questions unanswered, but be sure youll set at least 15 minutes before the time limit to answer all of the questions that are being asked.

anonymous 2 weeks ago when is the sked of cs examination for 2012? rachel jobyjamito 3 weeks ago when is the next filling for the civil service examination this year?,,,i want to take exam jone jarin 3 weeks ago pls pray for me since im planning to take the cs exas this 2012... kinakabahan na ko... Ann 3 weeks ago I took my CS Exam last 2003 and board exam for teachers the following year. Thanks God, I passed both. The saddest part was, since 2003 pa ako nag a apply sa government but still couldn't had a chance to have one. Wala kasi akong backer. Grabe. How frustrating our government is. Para akong tae, pinagpapasa pasahan lang nila, ang daming employee sa government, wala namn CS but still, andun cla, may mga backer kasi.. tsk.. Anong petsa na, 2012 na.. cguro si Pres Ninoy ang kukunin kong backer para ma in na tlga.. mhice 3 weeks ago sir ask q lang po 3x na aq nagtake ng exam successive sa isang taon pwd ba aq ul8 mag exam wla bang limitasyon. alex 4 weeks ago pray and ask for guidance before the exam. believe in yourself. you have to believe that you can pass the exam. start answering the part that you find easy.this will help in warming you up for the more difficult parts. avoid taking too much time answering one question. leave those questions that you don't know the answers and try answering it instead after you have finished and you still have a spare time. guess if you really have no idea of the answer. if time is about to expire and you still have many questions unanswered, just guess, but i would suggest that you pick only one letter as an answer to all the remaining questions.hehe. make sure to thank God for the experience. [stealth] 5 weeks ago @name: pwede rin prof ang kukunin ni jessie. Kasi undergrad ako pero kinuha ko ang prof category and I still passed the exam. [stealth] 5 weeks ago Hi, dabawenyo. Hindi mo na kailangan mag take pa ng civil service exam kasi RN ka na at covered ka na ng RA 1080. Try to read the article. Hope it helps. :) Rains Bautista 5 weeks ago I passed both the CS Sub-Prof and CS Prof this year. My tip: READ NEWSPAPERS EVERYDAY, and when I say newspapers I mean broadsheets. Reading newspapers will not only keep you updated and in touch with reality (as opposed to reading tabloids--doing so will send your brain floating somewhere), it will also give you a chance to encounter new words... even new uses for old words! As for the math, just practice on algebra and review the formulas you had in your Economics class. Good day! =)

I just had a chance to post in your hub again :) Anyway, as I said maybe a year ago that I'm an ECE undergrad, but passed the prof exam, what would be the appropriate government agency or department for me? Currently, I am working in a private BPO company but I feel like I need a new working environment where I can advance and develop in my skills. I'm just afraid to venture into another company considering the fact that I'm an undergrad and most companies are looking for grads. I'm afraid that if I leave my present company, I will have difficulties in finding a new job. Besides, I'm a regular employee already. Can you please give me an advice or thoughts regarding my concern?

ARVIN 5 months ago IM SO DULL IN MATH...IM TRYING TO COPE WITH THAT.. marie 5 months ago i don't think there is a perfect formula in passing the cs exam, but not reviewing will definitely give you a failing mark. don't rely too much on stock knowledge. chances are it's already rusty or outdated. do not just review just for the sake of reviewing. map your strategy. assess your strengths and weaknesses. focus on your weak points. learn a lot of testing tactics and techniques. Memorize important rules, formulas and concepts. Solve as many problems as you can until you get the hang of it. english is not as easy as i thought. analogy questions are a little bit tricky. beware of eye-catchers. pay close attention to common grammar and usage errors. most common errors are errors in subject-verb agreement, pronoun-antecedent agreement, tense or form of verb, case of a noun or pronoun. Common types of paragraph organizations are chronological order, cause-effect and statement-support. Watch out for key signal words. Given the limited amount of time in the exam, learn to practice the art of skimming and scanning. look for shortcuts. be time conscious. Come to exam well-prepared! Above all pray to GOD!I agree with the author completely-God only helps those who help themselves. good luck guys! ivy 5 months ago ...tnx to this hub page.,wish me luck for my exam this coming month of October 2011., aj 5 months ago kelan po nxt na civil service exam sched after ng oct 16, 2011 na exam??

TIPS:

be there early - around 7:00 am, may 3 documents na fifill-up-an, 2 seating and 1 attendance. this help para una ka mag-fill-up at may time na mag-relax. take a pee before examination - helps you relax more. take a bottle of water and chew a gum - mahirap ang mag-exam kung tuyo ang lalamunan at gutom, at least yung laway mo magpapabusog sa iyo. know the time - you can always ask your proctor how much time is left kung walang clock yung kwarto, this will not annoy them. I did this. take your time - kung may mauna mang magpasa, wag mag-panic, ako nasa 110 pa lang may nagpasa na and there is only 40 minutes left, 60 items left. pero natapos ko lahat with 3 minutes left to review the answers. Kasi nauuna yung mahihirap, the last 20 items masasagot mo on an average of 20 seconds bawat isa (wag mong hulaan kasi practical ang mga sagot). Erase corrected bubbles completely - kung nag-iba kayo ng sagot tiyaking walang matitirang lead residue from pencil. Sa test proper: Allow only up to 2 minutes sa math problems - if it take too long leave it but be sure na meron kang intellectual guess kung hindi mo na sya mabalikan. make visual aids - i-drawing mo sa scratch yung problem sa math para makatulong i.e. seating arrangement problem, first car to finish the line, what step you are on a ladder, first name-last name. Kasi ang given nakakalito. sa english - tignan mo sa given kung ano ang naiiba at malamang sa alamang yun ang sagot. sa sentence chronology - tignan mo kung anong answer ang may pareho ng simula ex. 1. ABCD 2. ACBD 3. BACD 4. CDAB 5. DACB. Siguradong 1 or 2 ang correct. make sure na mas marami kang sinagot ng tama kaysa hula. O ayan! papasa ka na nyan... grace 6 months ago i was taken my first exam last april, 2010.. but sad to say i didnt pass it.. and now i am planning to take the exam this coming october...but i dont know how to start my self reviewing..cause my time is very busy..im working in gorvernment as job order..or maybe i cant handling my time well..can u advice me what will i do for preparation for the exam?????
