haha.... its funny looking at all these post when i know the answers to everyone of these questions..
to settle your questions and give u some advice
- CMPB does things a long time before they call u up
- never try to apply for early enlistment/change of unit cuz most of the time u won't get it
- there are always people who chao keng or some accident happen or something new was discovered by you or u got a letter from your specialist doctor and get PES D. these people's places will be given to who ever is next in line or if theres a valid reason ( according to mindef guide lines ) to let u enlist a little early like if u're an A level and u still have not enlisted by april. continueing studies at the uni is not a valid reason so ask your parents don't call... read the recruits handbook and read up on on the distrubtion.
- pass NAFA at the last min.. u can kiss your enlistment Bye Bye and prepare to wait for the oct - jan intake.. sometimes even if u pass also not really that good cuz u waste loads of time just waiting for enlistment. minimal pass it 3 weeks before your enlistment date and u might stand a chance of going in in the same batch cuz adminstrative work is a b1t*h
- normally u will get your enlistment letter 2 months before. if u get it any later then 2 months most prob u lucky that someone gave up his place for u to enter. i know of cases where the enlistee was given 2 days before his date and he still happliy enlisted.
any other questions i can help answer? pm me or e-mail me ba ;)
