question for sign on army

[sereneamour]

Go through BMT first
Fight your way to OCS

Then see if you fit the army life
Then talk about sign on

I am sure there are plenty of avenues to discuss signing on then

If you are still keen and your performance is good, i am sure people will help you inside to realise your dream


Use the national service period to gauge if you really like it or not

Okay I understand now. Thank you for explaining.

If you want to sign on solely for the money then you will be damn miserable if you don't like what you are doing.


I believe you can sign on at anytime, it is just the sign on bonus n the back pay of regular pay will be different.

Thank you for explaining.

IPPT for women

I would be signing on with the army after I finish my last semester in uni (23F) and I have been scheduled for my IPPT. And I have some questions about the test:

1) What was your experience like when you were taking the IPPT? (Preferably answered from a female’s POV)

2) Do I have to get a minimum silver if I’m signing on as a regular? Or is a pass sufficient? (I’m not 100% sure about this but I have been training hard for a silver. Just wanted to know in case something happens on the test day and my performance suffers)

3) What is the minimum passing score for push-ups or sit-ups? Is 1 point considered a pass? (My sit-ups are really bad and I’m afraid it’s the station that is going to drag me down. Plus I know that they are super strict on posture)

4) Are females only required to do the bent-knee push-ups?

5) What happens if I fail? Am I allowed to retake?

I really hope someone can answer my questions. I have been losing sleep over my upcoming test!

2) the results impacts ur bonus and performance rating every year. if you are bouncing between silver and pass, not a good place to be at all.

5) can retake for the workyear but you will be under a lot of attention. failure is grounds for dismissal. if you are asking before you sign, they might give u some time to clear it while you are in service. but honestly, if you can't clear during the initial phases while you are in training, not much hopes for you.

All the best to you if you’re gonna sign on.
