Yup. U r partially rite. It's common fact that if u have the
educational qualifications,esp if u r in the 'A' level scholar
companies, u r most prob going to sispec/ocs. But still, u need to
pass your IPPT, and preferably your SOC. you also need a decent
peer appraisal, pc assessment and sittest result lor.
Well, what I said abt the initial screening is true. If u express
the wish to get out of sispec on the first day, they will try to
get you out ASAP. and i can say, not many pple really try to ooc on
their first day.
Most that get into ocs, really have performed well during their
bmt. They usually exhibit excellent command and control, as well as
outstanding leadership qualities. Abt office politiks, well.. it
exists everywhere... not only in the army, u juz gotta accept
it.
Hmmm.. the Suffer in silence part... i think it's juz some stupid
acronym to scare new trainees. But really... it's not the getting
in part. Pple hate to get into sispec. but as u go along, you find
that it's ermm... the pride's juz there. granted, it's not fun to
apply camo on ur face -first thing in the morning, EVERYday, and
then charge left and rite the whole Afternoon... but I think that
after it's accomplished, you do feel it's something. whatever.. bmt
is the most FUN!
