Only self study with ample guidance and one's own strived knowledge can serve the purpose.
Nopes , don't make the mistake I made, written CSS requires a mixture of ratta, knowledge and luck (pretty much the same like other conventional exams).. to gain knowledge do self study of various topics when you have time in exam (something called free run ), when exams are near (4 to 5 months) take past papers, get notes and start "ratta"; and start praying whatever you have crammed comes in the paper when exams are very very close . Give proper attention to MCQz and essay writing. Have healthy discussions with learned fellows. And that is it . Asal main baat yeh hai ke paper setter kaa mind question banate waqt jo bhi ho, paper checkers wohi bookish answers ko ziada pasand karte hain , to aap ke answers main jitne ziada bookish references honge aur bookish lingo hogi utne marks ziada milenge. aur jitna ziada aap apni understanding apni lingo main kam references ke saath dikhayen ge utni marks kam milen gee, chahe aap kee understanding accurate philosophical level kee ho
