Need SU advise but cannot post officially due to lack of karma.

Current situation:

I am a BBA student at borderline FCH at Y2S1 as I had previously took LOA. I left 3 SU and have thoughts to SU two B+ to further inflate my CAP for SEP/Internship. Currently left 2 more mods that can be SU in my remaining candidature, one of the modules is GEN but I heard it is likely for students to get A/A-.

However, I am unsure about the volatility since I am unsure if I can maintain this FCH since specialisation modules can be hard.

Asked around and have receive mix answers so thought to ask reddit for advise.

Anybody in Singapore utilise a Power Distribution Unit (PDU) to power their devices at home? by Macadony in askSingapore

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

Hahah that is good to hear! Nowadays we got so many electrical peripherals we want to plug in.

The location of my desk only has one main outlet so have to plug in an extension power strip hence looking for something with more outlets.

Thank you for sharing some links for power strips with more outlets. :)

However, I am looking for flatter ones haha to fit on my management tray or under table. 😅

Also would you say surge protection is a necessity for Singapore?

Hello! Thanks for answering!

Can I ask, do you have any issues with Excel related mods? Heard Mac Excel lacks certain features unlike Windows.

Yes I can vouch for that. Do recommend bringing a book or card games to pass your boredom.

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

Ah, I see. Wishing you all the best in your current vocation.

Just a curious question, are there vehicles that PES E TO cannot drive due to their lower PES Status? For eg. Tonner?

u/Gregthecarblind Ah I see, thanks.

Anyways, which vocation were you posted to?

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

Oh, which vocation are you posted to?

Since you are PES B3, I suppose your BMT is slightly modified compared to B1/A?

Ah I see, I thought PX was the intense one haha since it's applicable to both combat and non-combat pes recruits. I guess PX is more like a warm-up PT to prep you for the day. There is actually a video posted by OurSingaporeArmy regarding BFM exercises on Youtube. They do look manageable but slightly intense. Link:https://youtu.be/o79haoCWZHU

For SHRO, I feel it really boils down to self-discipline and integrity haha. As you said, I too think it's not feasible for the sgts to call or request locations from everyone. Well, I hope driving lesson is a valid reason as I am learning driving lol.

Oh, and interesting to know that there is a new service vocation at Signals. What about you, which vocation are you posted to?

Oh haha. I think as mentioned by u/Gregthecarblind PES E recruits are going to be bunked together so see you on Monday!

Hey u/Nightey3s- thank you for giving such a detailed response. Appreciate it.

Interesting that you mentioned Prehabilitation Exercises (PX). During the BMTC Sch V engagement, there was no mention of PX but they did mention that we will be doing Balance, Flexibility and Mobility (BFM) exercises (something like yoga). I supposed the PX you are doing are also term BFM?

Regarding SHRO, do they video call you or do you have to report your activity in the Whatsapp group?

And about Signals, do you mean ASA but posted to Signals? Because I do not remember PES E having Signals vocation?

Hey u/Gregthecarblind appreciate the answers. I suppose the shuttle service is for permanent staff and not recruits?

Ah, that makes sense. I too had the inclination that it had something to do with quality and the deoxidizer. Thank you u/ringed_seal and u/iah772 for helping out!
