Welcome to the Civil Service Examination Blog

I am Jed Tedor, a Civil Service Professional Passer and a Registered Electrical Engineer. I took the civil service professional eligibility exam when I was 21 years old, in Cagayan de Oro, Region X on a Sunday morning of July 27, 2008. It was a tiring day overall, I got knocked off in the theatre as I watched The Dark Knight, which was showing at that time. The result was released around October of the same year, I nearly forgot about the exam as I thought I had failed it. It was, after all, very very difficult. About 52,000 took and luckily I am one of the 5, 286 who passed it. It was a very a good feeling to have passed a qualifying exam. To what the exam qualifies for, I didn't know. I took the exam as a practice exam for my upcoming electrical board exam, which I took a year after.

ABOUT THIS BLOG: This Blog post will tackle about the exam process, i'll post my certificate and sample pictures here, I'll post the results and exam schedule. It will talk everything you need to know about passing the civil service examination.. Pls. follow me as I will continue on posting as the days go by. I hope this blog helps those who will take the exams for the first time and help realize the past mistakes for those who have failed it.

Computer Assisted VS Pencil and Paper Test Civil Service Career Examinations

Here are my thoughts, although I haven't experienced the computer assisted exam

Paper and Pencil Test:
1. more relax.
2. You can easily go back/skip to other part of the exams.
3. We are better-trained to answer this type of exam
4. Better chance in passing the exam (because you will be ranked with other takers, the more difficult the exam, the better chance to pass it)

Computer assisted:
1. If you don't know computer that much, you will be more stressed.
2. it will be difficult to go back to other part of the exam.
3. Answer sheet/form is new to most of the takers, it will time consuming to learn about it.
4. Less chance in passing the exam because Civil Service is designed to only pass those with above average IQ, which is only 20% of the world population. Since it is computer assisted, the passing mark will be fixed and not ranked like in PPT, meaning those with above average IQ are the only one that would surely pass the exam.

It's not about having new review materials..

A lot of visitors asked me if the review materials I posted here are new. The answer is NO. They are not new materials but you are free to compare them to new materials and believe it or not, the new materials and these old review materials are similar. Civil Service Professional - Paper and Pencil test have been this way for years.
