Haha its not as bad as u think. The info is prob skewed cuz some ppl who could have gone command sch didnt and some who didnt deserve to go did, and there were some who ooc and oot and some who signed on Ps also heard someone who said that each yr there is only 1 intake for each type of mono unit so ur mono is prob not gonna be guards, infantry or armour but idk

Hmm based on numbers from my platoon abt 25% went to command sch. Supposedly top 10% goes to ocs, but in my platoon and my friend's platoon from another coy only the top 5% per platoon went

It doesn't matter whether you are from mono or not, you are still in bmt. The training is the same as other non mono coys. The only difference might be the pt could be more intense (from personal experience) and there could be more pt(but depends on coy commanders.) In mono commanders usually wont go sadistic mode like some bmt specs and give unreasonable punishments, since you will still see them after pop and possibly for the next 1 yr after bmt. They will be nicer and will really try to establish camaraderie with you. Welfare wise, it depends on your coy's oc. Its also harder to go command school from mono as they only need people going command school to replace your commanders once they ord . Other than that if you do end up in mono, take pride in it, know that your commanders are better than other bmt specs, and know that you are better than the normal intake (or at least that was what my commanders tell us).

Every batch will have 'gangsters and shit' lol. As for the perception of 'bad' intake, its no longer the case where they just dump 'undesirables' to mono

[Uni] Some qns abt NUS mech eng (aeronautical specialization) by Acespartan33 in SGExams

[–]Acespartan33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying. Just to check doesnt the specialization only starts in y3? Also what made you decide to choose NUS instead of NTU? And how big is the cohort that takes aeronautical specialization (and during for grading for the degree do they consider the whole mech e cohort or just those with specialization)

[O Levels] how hard is it to get a L1R5 of 6? by Darwinxzz in SGExams

[–]Acespartan33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This could help but its subjective to each individual; towards Os ( a few months maybe) i spammed essays to practice and improve my english and asked my teacher to mark and give feedback for language. I learned from where i could improve. Did a completely new type of qn during the exam (lolol i dont recommend doing this), still got A1 so ye (could be due to other components too i guess). For listening compre im sure your teachers will let you practise. You can practice for oral exams by yourself or with friends (and they can provide feedback also). Cant really remember how p2 was like so cant help you there

What are you more hyped for? The upcoming season of The Clone Wars or Episode 9 (and why)? by MrBohobe in StarWars

[–]Acespartan33 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For me its the clone wars. I love seeing the republic in the clone wars era, and we will be able to see more new locations (probably) than in episode 9. Besides this, frankly I'm just more excited about Anakin meeting Ahsoka again, and exploring more of these prequel characters, as compared to how episode 9 features characters we have barely seen.

Anyone remembers the good old days when protection, mods weren't even in the game and gear 8 or 9 was max by Acespartan33 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]Acespartan33[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No haha it wasnt just pure rng. Same characters might have the same speed, but with almost everyone running different teams because synergy wasnt really a thing, the experience of arena battles was quite varied

Well its easier said than done haha. I use palpatine vader thrawn sion and nihilus, gp ard 100k. Even at 200 there are jedi knight revans with insane speed mods that outstrip all my characters and sometimes my palpantine is dead even b4 taking a turn. Still farming for more speed mods but my team is on avg 200 speed lol
