I am waiting for mains results. Meanwhile is it good to join SIAC Mumbai? How is the environment there. Can any former SIAC students give reviews. Is it a problem if I don't get hostel.
It has a good reading room and library nothing else. U can get help and guidance from senior players if at all they are present in Siac. Dont expect anything else from SIAC. No lectures no guidance.

more than 70% seats are reserved.. its worth only if u done with basic books atleast 1.. dont expect them to teach any1.. it is just like a library..
Thanks for the inputs, do we have anything like daily attendance there? I have given 2017 mains so have completed basic books once. Hostel ka scene kaisa hain?
Rather a question ,which you guys consider as one of the best ias coaching institute in mumbai
none.. a a shah is worst.. he was dukaan daar before he entered cse business.. though he doesnt teach anything..he hires ppl who can fool students .. ek din vajiram ke hist proffesor ko bulaya and doing ad ki we have delhi 's faculty
SIAC is just a place to sit n study. Nothing else. For exam you need basic books which all of us already have. We don't need to do thesis with the material in their lib. It's good for state exam guys, they feel delighted with exposure n citylife,. Also,all category students are there who live in their own world,with less cut off expectations. Don't be friends with them. Plus it's in the heart of Mumbai, all good food n hang out places nearby, so easy distraction. State pcs people boast about siac bvos that's the best they can think of

In siac u will rarely get coaching... i think right now they have bhushan deshmukh for history ... who teach every monday You can request the staff if u want someone they will get him for you ( they can arrange guest lec ) this year they also arranged lec for daf feeling which was really helpfull ... I dont know for prelims coz i joined for mains .. certainly if u want to prepare from mumbai .. it is the best place ... coz atleast u will get group for mains ... siac helped me lot in this attempt, as we form group for writing practice and last month group discussion... but this should be self initiative... about environment... hostels are not good ... gch is far away ... and u can not do late night study as it close down 10pm ... and siac hostel is not properly maintained.. specially the toilets... but reading facility is good ... u will get wifi and ac in reading facility The tiffin is also bad ... but nearby there are hospital mess which is good and cheap And problem of not getting hostel is upon you... as I already mentioned you have to leave siac at 10pm if u did not get siac hostel ... only student from siac hostel allowed for night study ... one more thing ... if want any test series for prelims or mains ... from any class ... u can talk with staff and they will arrange it ... they will also pay for it ... also for mains they arranged two full mock this year ... an last ... yes these days siac glory is decreasing... many times u will see state pcs guy studying in lib ... and staff allows that .. but dnt wrry u will get good group for upsc ... like this year they have 43 student preparing for mains ... its not hard to form group for study ...

about environment... hostels are not good ... gch is far away ... and u can not do late night study as it close down 10pm ... and siac hostel is not properly maintained.. specially the toilets... but reading facility is good ... u will get wifi and ac in reading facility
The tiffin is also bad ... but nearby there are hospital mess which is good and cheap
And problem of not getting hostel is upon you... as I already mentioned you have to leave siac at 10pm if u did not get siac hostel ... only student from siac hostel allowed for night study ...
