PES A/B1 BMT
This 9-week programme trains combat-fit recruits in the basic military skills to prepare them for advanced vocational training. The programme includes weapon training with the SAR 21 rifle which will teach recruits technical handling and marksmanship skills; a Battle Inoculation Course that simulates a real battlefield; a Field Camp which develops basic survival skills; progressive training to complete a 24-km route march which builds combat fitness and endurance; and hand grenade training.
For those who fail to achieve the NAPFA test silver award, they are required to undergo an 8-week Physical Training Phase prior to the Pes A/B1 BMT.
PES BP BMT
As evidence has shown that obese recruits are able to achieve optimum fitness levels and weight loss in about 19 weeks, the new BMT programme for recruits with Body Mass Index (BMI) scores exceeding 27.0 will be 19 weeks. This BMT programme is designed to help obese recruits improve their physical fitness progressively while equipping them with basic soldiering skills and knowledge.
PES B2 BMT
Enlistees who were PES C1 previously underwent a 7-week BMT programme. The new 9-week PES B2 BMT programme will be conducted for recruits who are medically fit for deployment in selected combat and combat support vocations, such as signal operators, combat medics and naval system operators. These recruits will be given a new medical classification of PES B2, in place of the existing PES C1 classification. This is to ensure that the medical classification of our soldiers is consistent with their deployment. The new 9-week programme will include customised physical training, as well as basic combat training to prepare them for their combat and combat support roles.
PES C BMT
The 9-week BMT programme will be conducted for PES C recruits. This programme will include light physical training and vocational training to prepare them for combat service support vocations, such as service medic, and those related to logistics and administration.
PES E BMT
The 4-week BMT programme will be conducted for PES E recruits. This programme will focus on, vocational training as well as National Education, SAF core values, regimentation and discipline to prepare recruits for combat service support vocations.Prepare for PTP/BMT: http://iprep.ns.sg/

Can tell you that even PES A BMT is very sissy nowadays.
Now the field camp and sit test are combined and last at most 5 days in total.
As for the rest, most of BMT is fitness stuff- IPPT and SOC (fucking boring). There is only range for one week. The rest of the time, you carry your rifle but not use it.

Oh cookhouse food sucks.

True, BMT is so soft these days. Any softer, and it should be called summer camp.

Am currently going through BMT now with 2 weeks left till POP. I can tell you that FC lasts for 6-7 days including SITEST and the intensity and toughness of BMT differs from coy to coy and I happen to come from the toughest coy in school 2 and I can assure you that BMT still produces tough soldiers.
I believe that PES A BMT is definitely not sissy-ish or anywhere near a summer camp from my experience thus far.

Do PES C personnel need to go for range before ORD from full time NSF?
