In my point of view, you should continue with civil service. It is little bit hard but it has bright future and if you have more interest in MBA, then you can do it, but do it from a good university or college.
All the best.

For IAS preparation, I would suggest you to complete your class 11th and 12th with all your efforts and try to learn all the basics. You need to be a bright student with very excellent marks after that you can go for your graduation.
All the best.

CSE and ECE are totally different both have different base. CSE will take you in the world of Computers and software whereas ECE towards electronics and semiconductors. Now, its on your choice if what you like the most. Choose one and go for it.
As your aim is to become IAS, you can be an IAS after doing this engineering but for better is suggest you to go for B.Sc if you are totally confident to go for IAS.
All the best.

Preparing for UPSC(IPS) requires combination of smartness and hard work. Do the right things to gain an edge over your competition:
*Get the right books for Prelims
*Start preparing at least 10 months before
*Solve past year questions to test yourself on regular basis
*Cover the scoring sections early
*Cover the syllabus strategically. Don't go for a "prepare all" approach for prelims
*Balance paper 1 and 2
