  I am enlisting soon. So i have some doubt in my mind.
  
  1)Is it good to go for obese BMT or start training myself now and go for medical review again?
  
  2) If go through obese BMT got the better chance to go in OCS?
  
  I was PES B but downgrade to PES Bp due to personal problem.

  haaa.. obese bmt actually not bad.. more relaxed than other ppl... juz tt u have to enlist than PTP batch a week b4... but then into obese, your chance of going in ocs is slimmer, but chances are still there... one of my friend, moderate obese, went to ocs, after he slimmed down quite alot, plus u have to be interactive and sociable.. if u wana get into ocs, u had better train now... but getting out of obese companies, your life wun be tt simple.. haaa.. but if u really aiming for command school... get out of obese might b a better choice.. so at least u wun feel so 'xiong' aft obese go to ocs.. cuz obese quite slack...

  It's already too late if you are "enlisting soon". Your last NAPFA results shall decide which BMT to join.

  obese BMT does not necessary mean that your chances of making it to command school is lower. its the same as the enhanced BMT or the PTP batches.
  
  the perception that obese BMT has a lower rate of recruits going command school is due to the inability to meet the IPPT criteria of command school.
  
  bear in mind that the minimum criteria for making it to command school is a pass in IPPT.
  
  obese BMT does not necessary means that it would be slack. i am sure there are batches of PTP or enhanced recruits whose companies is next to obese companies can testify that obese companies can get very tough too.
  
  i know during my year, an mild obese coy had to leopard crawl throughout the entire field due to some incident.
  
  so let us not jump to conclusions to hastily.
  
  obese BMT is structured for recruits to lose weight and gain their fitness. if they can clear their IPPT, and at the same time, meet the requirements for a command school, be it SISPEC or OCS, they will go to.

  look at it this way... 2 years later... u won;t be fat, you be handsome, and can get prettier girls.
