Army Selection
-
The Army selection has a system to choose which recruit goes to which 'vocation' They look at your Jogging in 1. 5 Km. I f you are 14 mins you go Infantry if more POWER, you go somewhere else..This system if i am not wrong comes directly from UK SYSTEM!!!

No matter wat the army system sucks big time.Originally posted by hudax1:The Army selection has a system to choose which recruit goes to which 'vocation' They look at your Jogging in 1. 5 Km.

i dun know where u got your source but running 1.5 Km in 14 mins is easy as hell for a 17-20 years old guy. I would think that only the more obese people can fail to run under that timing.Originally posted by hudax1:The Army selection has a system to choose which recruit goes to which 'vocation' They look at your Jogging in 1. 5 Km.

But regards to if there is really a system where they use to allocate vocation,i am not sure on that. -

Huh? Where did you get this info from?Originally posted by hudax1:The Army selection has a system to choose which recruit goes to which 'vocation' They look at your Jogging in 1. 5 Km.

Passing time for 2.4km is 12:20. If what you say is true, then doesn't this mean that most of us will be CDO standard? -
No lah, they just see your face.
If you got "officer" face, OCS
If you got "sergeant" face, SISPEC
If you got "lanjiao" face + "garang" attitude, "chiong sua" unit
If you got only "lanjiao" face, god bless you lah.... -
1.5km in 14mins? LOL! u mean in FBO?

I think he means 1.5 miles. I also think he doesn't know what he is talking about. The British Army's fitness standards are far higher than ours.
-
ya. should be 1.5 miles which is equal to 2.4km.Originally posted by lwflee:I think he means 1.5 miles. I also think he doesn't know what he is talking about. The British Army's fitness standards are far higher than ours. -
can you run? if not the thread about NS Army selection is plucked from the sky.
-
one thing is for sure, regardless of physical fitness performance lousy or good, they will throw to any vocation during the sorting out before BMT.
They expect the recruit to make that minimum expectations during BMT. If not that recruit will get retraining. -
Even then, 2.4km within 14 minutes is easy for the average combat-fit SAF soldier. If he had said 12 minutes, I might still have believed it.Originally posted by freedom4ever:ya. should be 1.5 miles which is equal to 2.4km.
hudax1... don't mind enlightening us on the source of your information? -
i 'bird' level oso haven reach...but this version is the most common i heard...you get allocated vocations before bmt...Originally posted by AF2005:one thing is for sure, regardless of physical fitness performance lousy or good, they will throw to any vocation during the sorting out before BMT.
