This is going to be my last and final attempt. I am going to give it all that I have.
I need a sincere and honest opinion on whether to join Next IAS online program for 2019 or Forumias' focussed foundation program for 2019.
Which among the two is a better option?
PS: @ForumIAS can also come forward and give an unbiasef opinion
1.Forumias
Kuch teachers ache hain, guidance from selected members,test on time,regularity,online forum to raise issue,one-one discussion Issue could be lack of experience and quality of discussion in tests(as happened this year in 50 question wala tests).. cant say anything about new teachers who r going to teach.
2.Nextias Moneyminded aplty written by truthteller above,although isme bhi kuch teachers ache hain that have been poached from other institutes.
3.Risingias= Chokkalingam Depth me karata h coverage acha hota h. Issue= adha lecture BJP ko gariyane me nikal deta h +Bulky notes which are difficult to revise
4.Shubra Ranjan Classes Some teachers are good , have seen few videos on youtube for prelims, looks promising Issue: could be lack of experience of few teachers though kuch isme Visionias faculties bhi hain jo ki ahce hain.
5.Sleepy Classes= Youtube Videos To the point explanation, I watched their 1minute and prelims series if they continue similar series for Prelims 2019 do follow it. Issue:Kuch important topics ignore kar dete hain..but since it was free can't complain.
6.Chromeias: Dont know much about them regarding prelims but since on forum truthteller and some other candidates have recommended it u can check them(better ask for demo classes if possible) though got good reviews about them for their mains mock test feedbacks Issue: Dont know.
7.Visionias Coverage static part ka thik thak rehta h teachers try to explain in simple language.(especially economy wala) Issue:Costly + u can access their advance videos on Telegram groups +supplement it with their currnt affairs magazine.
8.GS Score Got poor reviews from the students who earlier joined their course can't say anything much about them.
9.Go for module coaching : Polity= Puri Sir(Online) History= Baliyan Shiddieqy etc Economy= MK Yadav,Ramesh Singh (I prefer Mrunal any day though) etc etc
koi bhi join karlo inme se waise effort khud hi marna h at best they can only help u in clearing doubts and maintain regularity.

Bhai coaching join kyun karni he apko ? I think as far as I remember u have gone through this process before so coaching don't think will be needed , khud karna will be more beneficial as I never felt coaching is needed in general studies preparation, may be test series but not coaching,
Sorry wasn't very helpful for deciding which one to join but i don't feel u need to join any of the two , sab ok hote he he and thik thak

true coaching is nt needed , but koi mentorship programme kro
I think NextIAS is charging significantly less for ONLINE foundation programme 2019 as compared to ForumIAS. Every institute has few famous and star teacher and some not so good. If they provide latest recordings of lectures not old recorded ones. I would suggest go for NextIAS.
Don't get emotional about ForumIAS. Take your own call.
You are good to go all alone, I know you are an old member. Only few factors stopping you from clearing this exam, one might be lack of discipline.
In my opinion You don't need good teachers ! You might need a coach. For that you can join FFP, if at all you have to join.
Better come out of your comfort zone, try to find out root cause of your failure (if you see it that way else I don't see it that way). Joining test series and executing well can make a difference. Study for 365 days and see if things turn around.
PS- I have assume many things, don't mind if something doesn't apply to you.
@LuV i also feel you dont need any coaching for gs be it pre or mains however if at all you want to join you can give scholarship test of next ias by which your fee will be reduced greatly. Also their classroom program includes pre and mains test series. However if you do not perform well in scholarship test then you may reconsiddr your decision. But beware, i think last date to apply os today or tomorrow.
