FIA ASI Past Papers

Post Past Papers115 questionsPage 10/12

Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) is a post in the investigative stream, one grade below Sub Inspector. The FIA tested for it on three days in December 2021, and this page holds 115 published questions from those three papers, dated 14, 15 and 21 December. All three are partial transcriptions and will grow as further questions are recovered.

The ASI papers spread their questions across an unusually wide set of subjects. Islamic Studies and Pakistan Studies lead, but Computer Science, English and Geography follow closely, and there are small clusters of Economics, Biology, Current Affairs and History, plus a scattering of MS Office, Chemistry and Earth Science. No single subject exceeds twenty questions. That breadth means topic-by-topic revision is less effective here than for other posts; a candidate is better served by attempting the papers as mixed sets and reading every explanation. The ASI and Sub Inspector papers from the same December 2021 cycle are close relatives and should be practised together.
