Anyone who have passed can do the tick. You can take help from more than 1 persons. It can be face to face or online. You can also choose recently selected CSP's as your mentors for that purpose. Check on this forum. Select for each subject and contact them by email. Apart from that you need to focus on English because almost everyone fails either 1 or both subjects of English. You should get help from any good teacher who must has good track record of teaching English to CSS students. My suggestion here is again to move to either Islamabad or Lahore. Rest you can do on your own. In case you think you need continuous coaching which includes subject matter, paper attempting skill classes and a lot of tests with suggestions from teachers then you can go for academy. I have a little experience of KIPS in the past. They conduct paper attempting skill learning classes and take a lot of tests and give suggestions of improvements as well. Subject matter classes are almost equal in all 3. If one has best teacher of one subject then other is being taught by teacher who is not so good. It is case of almost all academies. None of the academies mentioned above are perfect but the one thing I am sure about is that you can only find good academy in Islamabad & Lahore at this moment. I have also appeared once and awaiting result. I have appeared with little to no preparation. I have managed to revise my subjects and I know my flaws. I need to take tests and learn few skills for each subject so, I am going to KIPS for this purpose. I do not need helping in learning so it is best option for me. Along with that I am going to take help from any suggested English teacher in Lahore. KIPS was suggested to me by my friend and I trust her judgement. So, I am going to KIPS. You need to talk to all the academies on phone. Ask them about coming sessions and what is included in the package. What kind of classes they take i.e only subject classes or skill classes as well. Also how often they take test. Ask about fee package. KIPS is providing almost everything I need. For rest you need to call them. One other factor should also be considered which is hostel. If accommodation is bad, mostly people try to quit. It is better to analyze all factors. I think next session of world time academy is going to start on 9th July. Session of Kips was started yesterday with seminar and today is 1st class of evening batch. Morning is expected to start in 3rd week of July. I am going to join next evening session. No idea about NOA. I have not inquired about them since my plan is to move to Lahore.

Thanks for this piece of information. My point is still hanging in balance whether in Bahawalpur there is a mentor who may point my flaws out or any academy is considered the best one in this regard because I do not want to waste this limited time to exam.
I have already told you that there is no good academy or mentor available in Bahawalpur. You may be able to find 1,2 teachers for specific subjects but they cannot guide you about all subjects. One of my friends is from Bahawalpur and she has given 2016 attempt but failed in 1 subject. Her problem was same that no mentor was available in immediate vicinity and she could not move to another city. For next CSS 2017 attempt she had to move to Lahore for preparation and was allowed to do so as her potential was clearly shown in previous attempt. I also know another student from Bahawalpur who has taken coaching in KIPS Lahore this year. I have asked him if any good academy or mentor is in Bahawalpur. He told me no and that was the reason he moved to hostel. Academies are located in many cities but unfortunately they are not good at all. Most of them are sub campuses of famous academies but I am 100 % sure they will waste your time. I have given you the best advice after getting information from 2 persons. Rest it is up to you. All 3 academies I have mentioned are almost equal but far better than other academies and sub campuses.
