Uncertain if I'll get delayed

[Nuclear Boy]

Hi there,


I had my last cardiologist appt at the SAF Cardiac place at NHC on 11/4 and checked out by the doc as free from any heart problems. Then I validated this final LOI and concluded the appts on the MRS (which would supposedly inform the doc to send over the documents for my case to MCC for evaluation). How long would it take before my PES status will be known?

Also, I'm worried I might not be able to make it into this year's final PES BP BMT intake (late-August) since my PES status is not known as of now and all of my friends and classmates have already received their enlistment letter for Sep/Nov. While I can't seek assurance from you guys, I'd just like to know my chances of being able to be put into this year's final BP intake, OR unfortunately get delayed till next year.

FYI, I just graduated from poly and am slightly obese, that's why I assumed I'd get PES BP since I'm medically-fit. Come to think of it, I went for the check-up mid-December, but had to return to re-do ECG at CMPB first week of Jan, then get redirected to NHC for a consultation mid-Feb and then the actual tests end-March, like FINALLY *sian*. The reason why I'm so worried about being pushed back to next year's intake is because I might get a uni offer soon which starts Aug 2016 and I certainly hope my studies/NS don't get disrupted! Thanks.

If no choice then have to disrupt NS leh
This type not upto us to decide when to enlist or how to speed up process
But no worries I enlisted in nov but only received my letter in july

Even so, you did get it more than 3 months before enlistment. If my PES status really took a month to be confirmed, I'd be just shy slightly more than 3 months before getting in.

I don't think the 2nd batch of each cohort will be full at all. so as long as you get ur pes before the final enlistment date, u should still be able to enlist in the 2nd batch

Isn't Sep-Nov intake the 3rd batch? The thing is I don't know how long it'll take to have my PES processed. Do you know the average duration?

for poly it should be the 2nd. Why do you say it's 3rd? What do you think are the period for 1st and 2nd.

There's no such thing as average for you.

Really average are those who go for just 1 medical check up and got their PES on that day itself

Well I have no idea about that lol. I thought there are 3 batches each year? Poly grads usually get in Aug-Nov period.

From what I understand, there are 2 batches each for JC and Poly.

For JC should be first half of the year, Poly second half of the year.

Suggest you give CMPB a call

I was pes D for a few mths. Then fed up call CMPB and voila, im suddenly in the next intake.

I was looking it up on this page, that's why I say 3 batches.

I emailed them just now to ask how long the wait for PES status. They aren't the most efficient organisation ain't it?

SAF is like that 1 there are 4 batches each year for those normal people and slightly obese is how much bmi?

Just keep on call , call and call everyday until they fed up and do something about you. True story bro

 

[lousydk]

very hard to say what is the average duration to get pes status
because different condition got different duration

i was given temp PES D, but the pes status expired for 4 months before i receive my enlistment letter
so what do you think?

so for me i waited 4 months for them to determine my condition and pes status

SAF deem one as obese when BMI>26.9 I think. I'm around 27-28.

They might have removed those dates that are over

hi, u can pester them but end of day, a lot of things out of your control.

they will let u disrupt NS for uni, and from what i heard, when u come back during the holidays, basically is do nothing, so its not that bad.

so just enjoy whatever time u have now and don't worry so much about this
