Rows of empty desks with a pen and pencil on each in a quiet exam hall, for the PPSC Assistant Registrar psychological assessment

PPSC will hold the written psychological assessment for Assistant Registrar Cooperative Societies (BS-17) and Lady Assistant Registrar Cooperative Societies (BS-17) on Friday 13 November 2026, from 9:00 am, at its examination centre near Ayub Chowk, Johar Town, Lahore. 131 candidates are called. Bring your original CNIC, two new passport size photographs and your own pen.

The Punjab Public Service Commission (PPSC) posted the schedule on its home page on 5 November 2026. It comes from the commission's Psychology Wing and covers Case No. 8K/2025 and Case No. 7K/2025, both in Punjab's Cooperatives Department. We opened the notice on 6 November and read it in full. The rules on the day are strict, so this page sets them out one by one.

The written psychological assessment is on Friday 13 November 2026

An Assistant Registrar Cooperative Societies is the officer who registers and supervises cooperative societies, such as housing and farmers' cooperatives, under the Punjab Cooperatives Department. The Lady Assistant Registrar post is the same job, reserved for women. Both are BS-17 officer posts.

Four items decide whether you are allowed in

PPSC lists what each candidate must bring and do. It also says plainly that anyone who does not follow these rules will not be allowed to sit the assessment.

  1. Bring your original CNIC. The notice calls it mandatory, so a photocopy will not do.
  2. Bring two newly taken passport size photographs.
  3. Bring your own pen, blue or black, and a lead pencil.
  4. Hand in your mobile phone and bag outside the premises before you enter.

The photographs catch people out. Old prints from a previous application may be refused as not "newly taken". Get fresh ones made a day or two before, and keep a spare pen and pencil in your pocket in case one fails. PPSC's wider exam rules on CNIC, ink and admission are in our guide on PPSC passing marks and exam rules.

Group activity and interview dates come on the day

The written assessment is only the first phase. PPSC says the date for the group activity and the psychological assessment interview "will be issued on the day of Written Psychological Assessment". So you will not know your next date until you sit the written part.

That has a practical meaning. Keep the days after 13 November free if you can. Note the date you are given before you leave the centre, and do not rely on a friend to pass it on.

The notice also gives a clear warning. Any candidate who fails to appear in any phase of the psychological assessment will not be eligible for the final interview. Missing the group activity, for example, ends your chance at this post, even if you did well in the written part.

PPSC ran the same three-phase pattern for CCE-2025 this autumn: a written assessment first, then group activity and interviews by station. Our page on the PPSC CCE-2025 psychological assessment shows how those dates were spread out.

How to prepare in the week before

A psychological assessment is not a knowledge test. It looks at how you think, decide and work with others. You cannot cram for it, but you can arrive rested and calm.

Sleep well the night before. Johar Town traffic in the morning is heavy, so leave early for a 9:00 am start. Answer the written tasks honestly and consistently, because these tests often ask the same thing in different ways. In the group activity, listen as much as you speak. Our guide on preparing for a psychological assessment covers the group discussion in more detail.

After the final interview, PPSC publishes a recommendation list. Our guide on reading a PPSC final recommendation notice explains merit numbers and quotas.
