The Federal Investigation Agency recruits across a wide range of grades, from Constable and clerical staff to Inspector and Assistant Director, and each grade has its own written test. This hub brings together more than 3,200 published questions transcribed from FIA past papers spanning 2002 to 2022, organised by post and then by paper. Inspector, Assistant Director and Sub Inspector are the most heavily represented posts; UDC, LDC, Assistant, ASI and the Assistant Director Investigation and Legal posts have fewer papers but are all live.
Across posts, the recurring subjects are Pakistan Studies, Islamic Studies, English, General Knowledge, Mathematics and Everyday Science, with computing questions weighted towards the clerical and Cyber Crime Wing tests. The recruitment tests have been conducted by different testing agencies in different years, and where the paper metadata records that, it appears in the paper name. Start with the post you are applying for and attempt its most recent paper first; the older papers show how the pattern has shifted over time.

Percentages
Solve for x: 45 ÷ x = 25% of 90. Find x.
Correct answer: A
The equation is 45 ÷ x = 25% of 90. First, calculate 25% of 90: 0.25 × 90 = 22.5. So the equation becomes 45 ÷ x = 22.5. Solving for x gives x = 45 ÷ 22.5 = 2. Among the options given (5, 6, 7, 8), none is 2, so the correct answer should be 2, which is not listed. The originally given correct answer (B: 6) is incorrect for the equation as stated. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 5 is also incorrect, but since 2 is not an option, the closest correct answer is to fix the options or question. However, based on the equation and calculation, x = 2 is the correct solution. Since 2 is not an option, the question or options need correction. The verified correct answer is A: 5 is not correct, but among the given options, none is correct. The explanation is that the correct solution is x = 2.
