Hi, I completed my aeromedical checkup back in mid of April this year, was wondering when I be notified of my aeromedical results and whether I will be eligible for the Interview.
For context I got the letter from rsaf inviting me to take part in the compass test back in november last year but I only signed up in march this year.
They contacted me to take the compass test end of march and 1 week later I got invited to take aeromedical checkup (I assumed I passed the compass test). Aeromedical checkup went pretty well, the last station the doctor went through my papers and circled the first letter “P” for my papers (not really sure what that means).
Oh ya and I noticed there were about 6 different vocations written next to my name including pilot, does this mean I'm eligible for all 6?
Anyone knows roughly around when will I be notified for my interview session and what happens after the interview? Heard from some friends that I'm supposed to do well in bmt and aim to go into ocs, only then I will be eligible for pilot vocation wondering if this is true.
I'm entering in July this year btw
Hello , my friends are going for project serve and was wondering how is the experience like? Curious on the life there
Hello, current NSMan doing studies overseas. I wish to change the length of my course, reduction in total course, and change to a different course. How do I change my exit permit duration. Tried emailing CMPB but they’re no help. Any idea how I go about this?
As the title suggests, anyone in the above mentioned wing currently? Can msg me? Kinda need a small help from you. Thanks a lot!
hi im 16(M) going to 17 and my eczema flares up quite easily and im scared ill go pes b, i had dreams to going scdf when i was younger, but now puberty hit and i constantly work out in the gym as it has air conditioning (i dont do activities that make me sweat as itll trigger my eczema), and eczema fucked my life up, i know i couldve been in pes b easily without my skin condition possibly pes a, but i read the stories here about eczema and ns and it sounded like hell, one of my friends told me to down pes as much as possible, idk what pes i will get, but i know if i ask for a referral from a dermatologist it can help a lot, my skin flares up easily btw, 10 mins in SHELTER when sg is at a bad weather like sunny and its itchy all over already. I really wish i had gone scdf but i know that i cmi cause my teachers told me cause of my skin condition, and how i shouldnt risk my health as im prone to getting sick (got covid 4 times btw), it really ruined my hopes for the future, i really wanted to save lives, but the point is im wondering what pes status do i get if my skin condition is as bad as this?
and btw my eczema is considered moderate to severe
okay most of u guys would probably be shocked about this but is it possible to sign on ocs if i am still a man??
fyi: still nsf just thinking of signing on after ord since i never express interest in the first place
got called back for first ict at SGC asked to bring FBO what to expect ah?
Very serious question. Will my ord transcript grade affect my job prospects in the future?
Not sure whether private companies, especially competitive international MNC roles will ask for my transcript, either during or after uni...
Would love to hear about y'all experience job seeking with a "satisfactory" transcript.
most of the post here is about SAF dental centre which SPF doesnt have so i guess our process might be different. Any senior PNSF mind sharing the journey?
Anyone can share their experiences signing on as a ME4 during NS (Interested in C4X)? Please DM 🙏🙏
Recently, I just went to multiple checkups for my BP and my avg BP is like 140/74 but i frequently gym and exercise all the time, so does anyone know what pes someone would most likely get with high BP?
I see numbers like 7xx SIR, 8xx SIR and 9xx SIR, etc. for reservist infantry guys. is there a way to tell if they belong to 1 SIR, 2 SIR, 3 SIR etc. previously just by looking at the three digit numbers? Thanks

Shoutout to all the comments that made me think twice and pull thru
Hi, is this normal? I am unable to access Emart on ORD day. I have some credits left which I wanted to use to purchase some items and now it seems like I can't. Any way to resolve this or is it supposed to happen? They might expire tomorrow so this is a bit urgent.
Thank you
Hi all,
I use to be a pes b1/2 signaller support in khatib camp, i saw the saf 100, it says only bring saf identity card, personal belongings and report in smart 4, it didnt says i have to bring FBO and 10 pack, so do i have to bring? do i have to do shooting? I do not have many of the shooting equipment like vest etc.. what to be expect also?
Thanks all🥹
Is it covered ? Can I claim back ? I paid a lot of money on the first appt. (Physical therapist, not mental) - SGH.
For context: I am PES C9L9, first time being called back for reservist after graduating from university.
I understand that for SAF, there are high-key and low-key call-ups, what about for SCDF? Will it just be 10 ICTs under Shelter?
ORDED in end april, how to check if its in already?
oot from bmt recently and since my batch is gna pop, js have some qns in mind
4)how long will i be staying in unit before recourse?

Hello everyone, I am a pending PES F personnel due to heart problems and was given a 2 month MC to process. Am i allowed to leave the house, work or even go overseas during this 2 months? Did anyone who went overseas got charged?
Just finished watching Joshua Tjandra and Raynor Goh interviews from "YG from SG" youtube channel.
I'm wondering how do your guys feel about NSFs and regulars who finished their 2 yrs or regular term respectively and decided to go overseas to serve in a uniform service again ?
Hello, am currently a PR serving NS. Had a pretty bad service injury from BMT and OOC'ed from there. I am going to be posted as an ASA. Will that affect my chances of getting citizenship if I don't serve in a combat vocation?
As stated in title. Basically i was a PES C9L9 ASA during my NS time, my unit chief clerk told me i had no reservist after i ord-ed. I was also not assigned to any unit and a bit shocked by this sudden call up. What are things that i should prepare/buy as i have non of my army gear anymore.
I was posted to Sungei Gedong Camp for my SCS Professional Term as part of the Armoured Specialist Cadet Course to become an Armour Infanteer. Due to the location and the course itself (JUST FROK THE FIRST TWO DAYS), I find it unsuitable for me for personal reasons. This is not due to personal grudges but purely due to personal circumstances. Are there are any ways I can move out of here? Perhaps back to Pasir Laba Camp for mainstream Infantry.
I had an ankle surgery (ATFL) before but am good to run etc etc and back to normal. Surgery was done in a private hospital. Medical check up soon! Will this affect my PES status?
Hello was wondering for those who ooc, have you ever taken mc and extended your mc after you rso? Is there any punishments for doing so especially if you’re unwell? Thanks!
some of my friends who are pes a/b inproed to their unit today and was told to chill for the next 2 weeks until us pes c/e soldiers were done with our course and would join them then. however they mentioned that only 5 would be joining instead of all 6 from my platoon since 1 is disrupting (which i assume is me since none of my other friends have intentions to disrupt). im also quite confused since i thought the med schs would collate the names of those who wish to disrupt and send it over in a list agter the deadline for confirmation of offer which has not passed yet, so no disruption order should have been processed yet.
could i check usually when the disruption for med sch usually occurs and would the saf not need to prep a unit for me to chill at while i wait for disruption anyways?
Does anyone know the reason? If its to make up for the lack or risk pay or whatever, why not just qualify RSAF NSFs for it rather than giving the rank?
I need to buy Wellco Boots for my younger brother's NCC since his spoilt lol
I can't buy at eMart cos we are different sizes. Does beach road sell them? If not, where can I purchase them?
