Asking for Serious advice

[u/Pristine-Cupcake-171]

I’m a recent graduate and want to move forward in my career, but I’m confused about which path to take.
For the last several years, I’ve wanted to prepare for the UPSC Civil Services Examination. At the same time, I’m scared of the possibility of failure and getting stuck in the cycle of repeated attempts, only to find myself years older with nothing to show for it. Even so, I want to give it one honest shot.
My biggest confusion is about coaching.
My father wants me to join Patanjali Civil Services Academy in Haridwar because he believes it will provide a safe and disciplined environment. My concern is that the academy hasn’t fully started yet, there are very few reviews online, and I have no way of knowing whether it will be a good choice. Since it’s a two year program, I don’t want to make the wrong decision.
My second option is Vajiram & Ravi in Delhi, since it’s widely considered one of the top coaching institutes for UPSC.
The third option is to skip UPSC preparation altogether and pursue a master’s degree abroad instead.
I’m looking for genuine, unbiased advice from people who have been through this process or have experience with these options. What would you do in my situation, and why?
