hi,

heard from my fren that every week during your ptp period, they will conduct a IPPT and if u pass the IPPT with silver and above(3pts or above), u can go out early and come back when your bmt start?

is it true?

thanks in advance..

mr_sotong SG

There will be one the day after you enlisted for PTP to gauge your physical fitness status. If I remember correctly, fromt he 3rd week onwards, they'll conduct IPPT and those who can get silver and above will be granted disruption for the remaining PTP period and then return with the enhanced batch.

You still considered PTP-phase trainee so no more 2 week confinement period but still serve the full 2 years instead of ORD ealry like the enhanced batch.

alwaysdisturbed SG

no more disruption already.

because ptp already cut down to 4 weeks from the previously 6 weeks.

NoTimeToWaitAr SG

u mean if i go in as ptp batch, i wun hv the 2wks confinement period?

Obersturmfuhrer SG

no, I meant when you re-enlist for enhance batch after disruption from PTP phase, no 2 week confinement period. Anyway redundant since no more disruptions. That was then.

^tamago^ SG

yes. u get back ur pink card as well, for 10 days or so. Laughing

hmm…thn if for pes Bp enlistee? if can managed to pass ippt also can go to the enhanced batch?

tankh80 SG

hm….. It depends whether u get sliver or not…..

Samuelpsw SG

so nid to get silver then can go to enhanced bmt eh??

DracZ SG

Enhanced simply means you've met the educational requirements, there are usually two variants - Direct Enhanced / PTP Enhanced, for those who have / have not passed their NAFA respectively.

Achieving a Silver for your IPPT doesn't grant you anything special, all it means is that you might be allowed to skip any Re-Training (RT) that the rest might have to put up with till they get at least a pass.

Enjoy your BMT =D

For PES BP Rec, u have to request before BMT starts because PES BP BMT is kind of structured, which means training is stretch thru out the whole BMT period meaning training such as arms training is introduce very early so there is no such thing as a "exercise" period then BMT period for PES BP Rec.

Once started, u cannot get out of PES BP BMT training even u get IPPT gold/sliver. (How I know? I was once PES BP and there were fit dudes who lost weight before BMT in our company, they lan lan served with us for the whole PES BP training period.)

Samuelpsw SG

in this case...if after bmt thn go for the annual ippt and get silver or gold..still can get the chance to upgrade pes status??

octega SG

IPPT is just part of the training. It has nothing to do with PES.

During ur end of ur BMT, they will re-examine ur PES (or could be done in your new unit depends on the timing). So which means, if ur BMI still indicate u still overweight after BMT then u still classified as PES BP, if not, u will be upgraded to PES A/B.
