Hello all.
i am currently 20 i will be entering NS when i finish my poly course,
i have a blood disorder called BETA THALASSEMIA i got this from my mother, and also BIPOLAR and SCHIZOPHRENIA. those 2 belong to mental illness.
i was in NCC during my sec sch days, and i have frequent black out due to the excercise.
here is my concern, i wish to be fit and able to take all the test and get a gold or silver without much struggling. i have look through the secrets of passing the nafa ippt, but i couldn't really understand the steps or number of sets to do.
can some of the experienced NSF give me some advice ?

u r strongly urged to declare ALL 3 conditions to the MO honestly.
if u have a doctor's memo, give it to the cmpb MO. if u have already went for the cmpb checkup, u can call the cmpb medical centre number 6373 1340 to get a fax number to fax the memo over.
pls note that the NS combat stress/physical threshold is much higher than any uniformed groups in secondary school.
Is it possible to check enlistment date on NSportal before you get the enlistment letter??

yes, www.ns.sg under the pre-enlistee section.
if there still haven't list, then it means just wait since it's already an official reply from Mindef...

it should be fine, but whatever it is, pls ensure that u have to declare truthfully, do not hide it.
some mental illness r hereditary due to genes (DNA), which means u may be more likely to develop it than other people.

as mentioned earlier, NS threshold limit is higher than ur usual exercises in terms of the well being stablility of physically, mentally, emotionally, psychologically.

That means you are posted to Navy, forgot where RSS Panglima is at, changi i think if not should be Tuas. Until you know your vocation, its hard for anyone to tell you much i guess.
