Only a few academies are good for CSS preparation to certain extent. They are helpful for beginners as they can give you clear direction. For advance level they are not as good as they should be. One should not rely on academy totally. Academies are present in almost all major cities of Pakistan but in my opinion most of the best academies are located in Lahore and Islamabad. They have two kinds of faculties on board i.e qualified CSP's and academic professionals. They offer all compulsory subjects but not all optional subjects are being offered. Only those optional subjects which are attempted by majority are being offered. It depends upon your selected subjects too that which academy suits you best. You can also go for approach two that is finding separate teachers for each subject in which you need coaching like English etc. Following are the names of few well known and most suggested academies in Islamabad & Lahore.
1- National Officer Academy (NOA) Islamabad
2- KIPS Lahore
2- World Time Academy Lahore

As most of the CSP's are located in these major cities, so other cities do not have that better faculty. You can move to hostel for session and duration will be around 4-4.5 months. Sessions start every month. Kips session is going to start tomorrow in Lahore. Do not know about others. You can search their number online and can contact them for further information.

No one can possibly compare academies without testing them including me. I am going to join KIPS as my friend has recently attended session there and she has strongly recommended me KIPS. Both of them were attended by a lot of recently selected CSP's so they all are recommending the ones they have attended.

Thanks for your detailed and kind information. Actually, I have already appeared and from very slight difference, my one subject has been dropped otherwise I have secured almost good score-712. Now, I just want to polish my narration. Keeping in view this background, please suggest the best in our opinion.

Your score is excellent. One subject was your bad luck then otherwise you could have landed in any one of the top groups. Good luck for coming exam. I do not think so that you need academy for preparation at this point. It will only waste your precious time, money and energies. For improving narration you should take help from senior CSP. 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.

How can I multi quote? I have tried doing it but my efforts were futile. Please guide me.

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.
