  Good evening eveyone. for a short introduction, i'm an A level student enlisting for NS in april. as in the topic subject, i got a lot of questions regarding jobs, ns and uni.
  
  2 days ago, i receive a letter from RSAF, inviting me to the RSAF officer seminar on 9 dec. i wanna know i'm one of the selected few or they just randomly picked? and should i go for the seminar? what is it about? and how good is the RSAF officer thing.
  
  next, regarding the uni application. sad to say, i still dont know how it works. how is the process like? is it like applying for sec sch or jc? and i wish to know what's the requirement to study maths in uni, ntu or nus. is the demand very high for the course? i'm a arts student and took math c. i have confidence in my maths getting an A but the other 2 not very optimistic. maybe an ACE - ABD. is this grade able to get me to maths? if not, what course can i go? and what's the lousiest course availble? sad it may be, but i want to be prepared for the worst.
  
  in the ST classified, there are jobs listing that offer u high pay by just sitting in front of the com and do "sth" for them. below are 2 of the sites. i was wondering if their offers are genuine and does anyone know how it works? cause they seems to be posting the same ads everyday. and what does admin assistant does? do i need know accounting for the job. and they require pc literate. how literate is literate?

  ok. ill answer one den.
  
  the jobs listing that you mentioned are scams, don't bother with them. the payout is based on how many other victims you can recuit..
  
  or shall i say "affiliates".

  and how literate usually means basic knowhows to use office, internet, etc. not to a programmer's level.

  go for the seminar by the air force... after all it's just an info session, plus got free food =P ( dam... 2 years in NS and that's what i learnt)
  
  you will be amongst alot of people who got this invite... part of the RSAF big advert scheme. cast a bigger net to get (hopefully) good people.
  
  as for a career in the air force... u must be of certain calibre to survive and do well, both intellecutally and socially.
  
  i guess for more info... look in the SAF forums?
  
  cheers!

  if u get ABD u still got plenty of uni courses in NTU/ NUS open to you i think. ACE will be much tougher, every grade counts. but it still can def get u in quite alot of courses in local uni. as long got A can do something. but also depends on ur GP. ur GP A is a big bonus, other than tt, B and C for GP no diff i think. Fail GP and with ACE will be much worse, maybe can retake GP seperately now i dont know.
  
  ABD can prob get u in most of the engy courses in NTU and majority of the rest, probably biz also can. for NUS also same. but i dont have any idea of maths prerequisites for either uni.
  
  when u get ur results u ask around ur classmates u will find out how to register for ur courses in uni. its not tt hard but also cannot suka suka do or worse dont do anything. if u do get AAA i think u will be offered scholarships and such, then dont need to do much, but unfortunately thats not ur case
  
  can place multiple choices in order of interest, 1, 2 3.. of course most kiasu ppl will just whack all the unis for application and at last min then choose which one to go to.
  
  then must mail them some documents and transfer them some $$ for their processing. forgot the process exactly already.
