  1) No.
  
  2) BMTC 1 is a mix of Pes A, B and BP. BP looks pretty slack to me. Perhaps you are referring to BMTC 2's PES C intake (company W) and the PES E intake at Raven? You really can't make comparison like that if thats the case.
  
  3) E-Mart? Your choices are limited.
  
  4) NO !

  1) is it true that the segreants in bmtc 1 are better than those in bmtc 2?
  no such generalisation, and does it matter?? u wont get to choose wich school to go. and knowing whether that the sgts are nicer / worse at the other school doesnt help cos for u the reality is where u r not where u wish / not wish to be
  2) is it true that because bmt c 1 is a mix of pes a n pes b so the trainings there are more siong?
  again no such thing. pes a and pes b coys do not mix with pes c and pes e coys and hence the trg of one does not influence the other - at all.
  3) wat kind of magazines n newspapers can i buy in the shop in tekong?
  the common ones. to be found at the gift shop. u can always bring them in every wkend. the newspaper stall at pasir ris interchange is quite well stocked.
  4) is it true that bmtc 1 recruits listens to techno while doing 5bx?
  absolutely not. i will be appalled if they do

  BP isn't slack. It sure looks slack compared to Pes A or B.
  But it sure isn't a joke carrying all that extra weight around.

  You are having the wrong concept of what's important and what's not. But its alright, alot of people are similiar to you before they enlist Personally, i worry about the wrong and smallest things before i enter NS/BMT just to find out that they are the least of my worries actually. Just go there and experience it for yourself.
