Hey guys! I'm currently in my 2nd year in Polytechnic, and I'm interested in a career in the SPF. I'm thinking of perhaps applying for a scholarship after poly, so I will be signing on as an SPO after that. My CGPA so far has been a perfect 4.0.
I have a few questions I would like to ask.
1st: For some of the scholarships, it states that one of the requirements is 'GCE 'A' levels or equivalent e.g. International Baccalaureate (IB)'. Is a diploma considered as an 'equivalent'?
2nd: How hard is it to score one of the scholarships? For example, how many of the scholarships are given out each year etc?
3rd: Would it be a benefit for me if I am selected to do NS at the Home Team? If it is, is there any way I could state my interest in it so that I could be placed there?
4th: When should I apply?
