I personally don't believe in going to academies for written preparation. Instead have a coach/guide/tutor for subjects you think you are weak in, or find someone who has passed CSS and can guide you.

I don't think that you need an academy. In case of 2019 CSS exam, all the questions were something that the academies did not predict. I think that YouTube is a good source to get guidance. For your English essay you can follow this format: https://youtu.be/mhzlaHXHaK4.
For Vocab you can use Magoosh app.
For precis practice the books available in the market will work.
You can follow the precis and reading comprehension format from Wren and Martin.
There are a lot of GRE apps that will help you with English.

Then coming to Current Affairs, I think that reading dawn everyday will be sufficient along with Al Jazeera Inside Story and Zara Hat Key. I don't think that you need to do anything more than that. If you are appearing in IR then you can use Foreign Affairs magazine. Again remember that you don't need to read the whole of dawn, just thee 3 editorials.

For Pak affairs use the O level's Nigel Kelly and Geography books. Maleeha Lodhi's book. You should also use Pakistan at the Crossroads: Domestic Dynamics and External Pressures by Christophe Jaffrelot (you can find a copy at ebookhunter.ch). Economic survey of Pakistan. Do not use Akram rabbani's book. It has been copied from multiple sources. Use either Ayesha Jalal or Ian Talbot for post independence stuff.

Islamic Studies and GSA
I found this mostly rata and all the sources copied each other. I don't have any advice on them. Other than the fact that watch YT videos
For Isl, you need to memorize a lot f verses

Such a reply constitutes every and any thing an academy could provide as info/knowledge. Your post oozes with dedication and sincerity. MashaAllah, may the Lord grant you the best of the best.
P.S. for Islamiat, Dr. Haneedullah's introduction to Islam is an awesome book for reasonings and course corrections in/for your CSS-based Islamic mindset.

That is a good book. I would also recommend using the O level books and the internet. I used chughtai's book as well.

I am agreed with your view. And would like mention a hidden teacher in Ghouri Town Islamabad, namely Sir Asif. He has been teaching both English Subjects with special focus and hard work on each individual aspirant. But there is an issue with this teacher. Not strictly an issue but more of a dilemma that he does not compromise on given work. Strict as hell but guarantees his candidate will not only pass both English Subjects even get higher marks. And also He accepts very little number of students though 5 to 8 mostly. I have been there few years back and obviously I cleared both subjects but failed in islamiat.
Individual coaching is cheap in terms of money and pays off big time.
Good luck.
