Select AMU only if you got Aligarh campus. A comparison in between JMI and AMU cannot be drawn. If you choose JMI then you stay in Delhi and can take coaching from Mukherjee Nagar which is the best place but from Aligarh, it wouldn't be possible.

Why are you thinking for after the posting. First achieve it then dream of it or think about problem you will get after it. Cracking UPSC is very difficult and that's the most challenging part. So first focus on how you will crack UPSC then think on later part. After getting any post, you will only select some places where you want posting. In that list only you will get post most probably.

I am preparing for UPSC, so I can help you with this question much better. There are 3 stages you have to cross to become an IAS officer. First is prelims then Mains and lastly interview. In prelims, there are MCQ questions regarding current affairs, science and technology, general studies, etc. There are two papers in prelims both are of 200 marks. The first paper is just for qualification and the second paper is for ranking. You need to score minimum 120-130 marks out of 200 in prelims.

First of all, it's not easy to become an IAS officer. You need to crack UPSC which is very hard. Secondly, cyber security is not so easy. So, I would advice you to choose any one as your future. Now, IAS officer can't do other jobs while working as an IAS officer. Cyber security is a big concern nowadays and country like should focus on it. You have a good future in cyberspace but better to choose one option and focus on it.

Good college for B.A. Is in Delhi university. I don't know about chahal academy. Do research about the faculty and success rate and then you'll know if it's good or not.

If you are really passionate about your Civil Services Exam, then choose a subject which is easy for you from list of subjects available for the year, don't worry about your para-medical Graduation Degree. Easy Subjects will enable you to crack the exam.
