  But it doesn't say mono-intake. It only tells me O level can.

  Yes you can, speak with your unit S1 or your CSM.

  Most importantly is that you try out military lifestyle before running into signing on.

  There are many other jobs out there, dont be too rash in decision. (Im not saying sign on is bad)

   

  Good day. =D

  You can sign on as a spec, but still i would advice to continue some study to improve yourself so that you can get promoted faster.

  I heard that for spec qualification doesn't matter as much as officers, wonder if it's true lol

  i think you can still pursue your studies while you're in service. qualification is required if you're signing-on till u retire ie. for promotion.
