IPPT gold big fark arh?!!!Originally posted by Calvary:In my section. Bed 1 to 4 had already been PLT ic before. Then today they choose someone from bed 12. They skipped my bed. Is there something wrong with me? Does my instructors hate me or something?
Btw i am a IPPT gold holder.
The only thing wrong with you is your siege mentality in thinking that your instructors hate you for no reason and that IPPT gold standard is an entitlement for you to be PLT i/c.Originally posted by Calvary:In my section.

CCA counts for nothing when you are selected for command schools.I know of too many people who went to OCS despite being a total shadow in school.Originally posted by nightzip:my analysis....
since you say platoon ic, not platoon sergeant or sect comd, i believe you are in BMT, rite?
ok, so if your bed is skipped, can have many reasons,
1). Reserve best for last (i.e. you can be PL IC maybe towards last few weeks where its REALLY the time to show out!)
2). Maybe they want you to be store IC, or other ICs, etc...cleaning toilet IC... also the same lah...
3). Or even you have IPPT gold, you NEVER show out any team spirit in your section and also never "lead" or help out ur section mates, or that in JC or poly or etc, you dun have good CCA, like uniform groups, military bands etc..NCC, blah blah...so you are NOT highlighted to take up any posts.
REMEMBER that if you got no chance to show out your skills in IC posts, very HIGHLY you will not be shortlisted for OCS, SISPEC, or any better posts...
NEXT time volunteer more ahh...![]()
PC recommendation is not the biggest proportion in which vocation you are allocatedOriginally posted by nightzip:but if not having a chance to be Pl IC, then you got no chance to let people assess you, esp. your PS and PC, so they cannot write something good to your docket and subsequently you wont be recommended to OCS? or SISPEC?![]()
depends on CPC. your PES status, education, and which unit is currently lacking manpower comes into factor. your IPPT standards might also come into consideration.Originally posted by nightzip:Hi Lazerlordz, can enlighten us on how we got posted from BMT onwards?![]()
