Its a 3D2N camp if not wrong. There are 12 missions which is a test of how your team work together and the leadership abilitiy of each member as everyone will take turn being the leader.

Should be all the major stuff.
SOC is just pass/fail
Normally SOC and IPPT should be the last tests you will do before POP.
IPPT in tekong is not counted. You want money etc is need go unit take.
Range has no effect on posting.

Hi guys, I will be enlisting on the 8th Oct. However, I noticed that there is a public holiday on the 17th Oct (Sat, Deepavali). Does that mean that I will be able to book out during the first 2 weeks of confinement?

Why PES and NAPFA not that important?

Posting to mono intake or tekong is mostly by education level. As long as you PES A/B, you are fit for combat so theres a good chance of mono intake. NAPFA pass or fail just affects how long you serve and not where you get posted to.

NO ONE can confirm that a certain set of conditions will guarantee a place in OCS/SISPEC.IPPT generally plays an important part.
Should you achieve the standard you listed above,there is a good chance(based on common sense) that you MIGHT get a place in command school.
Completing SIT test is not enough,everyone will complete it.How well you did in it is another matter.
You forgotten one more thing,that is peer review.Towards the end of your BMT,there will be a peer review where you rate each other within the platoon who you think has the best leadership qualities,etc.That plays a part too.
I have seen and heard of cases where even the company BEST recruit did not end up in command school even though they scored close to what you listed above.It might have to do with their peer review or some other factors....
-
The test done after medical checkup might play a part though but until now, noone has manage to draw a clear link how the test affects posting etc etc

hi stupid qn here.
i cant find my ns portal id and password.
it says on the main notice page
2. For those without Singpass, please use the NS Portal userid and password provided below.
but i cant see any thing like that at all :/

i was wondering if i do my range and IFC, will i be able to POP. I'm unable to do ippt due to injury..
-
By IFC do you mean the lesson or the field camp? If its just the lesson then i dont think ur bmt will pass. But if its the field camp then sure no problem de. As long as u did your range and gone for field camp you will confirm POP even if you fail your IPPT.

Att B for the entire field camp i am not sure whether it would be consider that you have completed field camp which is 1 of the requirements to complete BMT. The requirement is to participate in the field camp activities so it might be better for you to check with your PS/PC etc about whether you are considered to have completed BMT or failed BMT.
IPPT as mentioned is not an issue since tekong IPPT results even gold is not considered by unit and will have to be taken again at unit to get the award. The more important 1s are generally field camp, SIT test, range, grenade, SOC
