Hi,
seems that you are in Squad R2/14 right? Hope to see you in HTA soon. :D I am left with two months in there. One thing to remind, no camera phone and charger.
Hey sgt tan
i donno what squad am i in yet. can i know what must i bring in on the first day? How is life inside?
I'm in R1/14
Welcome people to SPF :) have fun during training. Remember 3 things, pass ippt, shooting and law to be at the safe side. Life inside isn't torturous or anything. Just exercise, drills, law, defence training and shooting.
hey takiruraiden
Thanks for the heads up! How about swimming? Cause i can't swim haha
Don't worry about swimming bro! They will teach you. Most likely those swimmers will learn advanced techniques like how to save people all. For you, you will be taught how to swim. But im not sure about swimming coz I've heard they've changed it to aqua jogging. Either way, swimming theory is more important than swimming itself. ^^
So is swimming a criteria to pass out?
I would say no. Just pass the theory so you dont have to come back and sit for retest
Ok thanks a lot!
Alvin1988, any updates?
@ArcadeFire

Well, 7 days for me. I hope no news is good news!
I need to submit my secondary school leaving cert and testimonial too. Can't remember where I kept them.
@shad0wprince
i called up my secondary school, they says most probably they dont have my leaving certificate already cos too long ago lol. nope, i haven done panel interview, only the selection assessment only :(
@ArcadeFire
haha yup. hope so too. really wondering when they will notify me again for the next round like the medical checkup or panel interview.
I don't know what happen but from what i know, normally we will know when is the panel interview on the selection assessment day itself. Most of us went for the panel interview on the same day as the selection assessment, i was told to come back 3 days later because it was full.
@shad0wprince
the panel interview is it will have 3 person in front of u and ask u questions? if it is, they asked me questions like do i intend to further studies when i join the force etc.
yes, that was the panel interview. so the next stage for you is the medical check up. it will usually take 2 to 3 weeks time for don't worry, no news = good news.
@shad0wprince
oh thats good. haha.. thanks thanks.
u are going in HTA in around 6 days time right, nervous? haha
wondering inside as a sign on regular, ippt need to maintain at least a silver or just a pass also can?
@alvin1988
I was told by my friends in the force that it's better to maintain a silver.
Anyway, it's been 8 days for me!
@alvin1988
I heard minimum you need to pass in order to pass out, but like what arcadefire said, it will be better if you can get at least get a silver or even aim for gold.
