  o cos first u mus be admitted into nus medicine by your own merits.
  
  u will disrupt around june and classes start in july.
  
  MOCC course - which happens after your 5 yrs of studies and 1 yr of housemanship, is senang - mostly studying and physical conditioning. nothing much - i think.

  Welcome to the medical fraternity!
  
  Chances of disrupting is really 50/50. If they forcast that they need more SAF Dr. they will disrupt you. If not, well you have to go thru NS like anyone else.
  
  Usually they will ask you to go for OCS tri service term first before disrupting you. But this is not the rule.
  
  MOCC.... Don;t worry about it yet. You have plenty more years to go. 7 years minimum!!! By then who knows.. might not even have such a course anymore.
  
  My opinion... MOCC is a really sillly course. Teaches you basically what a medic needs to do. Also just plenty of unncecessary Tekan...
  
  Cheers

  which JC are you from? most probably u'll be able to disrupt since u got into medicine at NUS (can't disrupt if one is doing medicine in foreign unis to the best of my knowledge).
  
  either that you can choose to serve your 2.5 years of NS and then fuck off to study medicine unless you badly desire the MO status and the rank of Captain which I think is useless.

  There's the NS MOCC if you don't get disrupted and you enter NUS after your ORD.
  
  But that's another story...
