New rule in this year notification is “Attendance of classes is compulsory.” Usually Candidates who have already started preparing for civil service exam can only clear this entrance exam. They won’t turn up to classes and just stay in hostel rooms. This is the usual happening. So only few people attend the classes conducted in seminar hall. To avoid such behaviour Principal have added this rules for this year. Have to wait and see how he would be able to implement this rule.
Offline Mode: They haven’t mentioned this in this year’s notiifcation. So there might be only online mode. If there are any changes I would update in our website.

Previously yes you can. But Principal sir right now is very strict and you can't opt for it. Also legally you will have some problems if you choose the full-time class.
Sir current affairs from month has to be covered for this exam?
From January 2019 is better. For last-minute preparations, I would recommend from June 2019

Read this document right now: https://www.gokuldeepak.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Preparing-for-Civil-Services-Examination-Beginers-Gokuldeepak.com_.pdf
I will write a separate post for that after a fortnight.
Sir do we get any confirmation mail after application?
No. They won't send any confirmation sms or mail.
Sir, I’ve entered my date of birth wrongly in the application… Should I fill a new one or will there be any problems in the future ???
Yes you should fill application once again. Wrong details should not be there. Once it contravenes then your seat may get rejected.
Sir what are topics comes under this General aptitude mentioned in notification please explain sir
As like in UPSC CSAT paper. Will be equivalent to basic aptitude from RS Aggarwal.
Like polity do they follow any frequent style of asking questions on general science becoz the questions asked before is some random question which is not given in any science material(NCERT)( for eg.Selinwanoff test is used to?) So how can score maximum in science Tell any good way sir
Questions fall from the sky. you can't answer all the questions. But S&T current affairs would be helpful. Recent Diseases, satellites, technologies like IoT, 5G are much expected.
thank u so much.
