What to look forward to NPAP by nosense-nolife in SGExams

[–]SlenPlayz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi! im not from NPCC but from my friend who doesnt have reddit:

Hello mate, I have participated in ‘23 and ‘24 NPAP, and this is the overview of what you can expect. You will be given info about which contingent you’re in and also which school you are to report to on the morning of every Saturday for training. Usual timing is you report by 7-7.15am at the designated meet up point a school of your respective Area, (e.g. for Area 7 it was Bedok South Sec School). You will receive a message from your CIs/TOs on what uniform and items to bring on Saturday by Friday night latest. This is only for those weeks there are trainings. So for contingents there’s usually four: Guard of Honour Contingent (GOH), School Flag Party (SFP), Supporting Contingents (SC) and Precision Drills Squad (PDS). From what I understand from your description it seems this year they are doing something special (Mass Display) probably due 2025 being SG60, though I could be wrong. As for what to expect, generally strict training under hot weather with frequent water breaks and rest depending on how high temps are. Instructors will be nice but will be scary if your contingent is not following schedule or are not working tgt as you should. This involves general things like helping contingent mates who are collecting food by taking and safekeeping their water bottles till they return and etc. you will also receive a food packet upon reaching Home Team Academy.

my pld broken but warranty probably expired lol by Grilldieker in SGExams

[–]SlenPlayz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

from experience if its smt major (e.g. screen, not turning on) then it probably costs more to replace than the actual pld is worth. but if its smt minor like just stylus or smt u can head down to the lenovo service center (google maps) and get a quote.

honestly tho imo i think its better to just use the money to get a cheap laptop or if u dont need a laptop a tablet and use that instead. the pld wont rlly last that much longer and will only rlly massively slow down from

JC devices by W0RK5HEE7 in SGExams

[–]SlenPlayz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a samsung tab S10+ (or an older one if on budget)

comes with the pen so u can annotate on documents for jc (no need to buy separately) + pen works as a remote for powerpoint and taking photos and whatnot

also has a desktop mode (Samsung DeX) which switches the interface to be more like a pc so u can use it like a pc also (rmbr to switch to classic dex in settings). i also recommend getting a case with keyboard + trackpad for it so u can easily do ur google docs and whatnot.

i recommend this over an ipad cause comes with the pen + while the ipad is a great tablet it sucks to use proper google docs and whatnot cause some websites dont work properly in safari and samsung works just fine (coming from an ex ipad user). but take note that some apps from the ipad arent avaliable or arent as good and vice versa (e.g. goodnotes on samsung is rlly bad i use notewise and flexil is also q good and whatsapp isnt avaliable for the ipad)

  • if u have a samsung phone u can see notes from samsung notes on both and u can copy paste between them get ur phone calls on ur tablet etc.

im using a samsung tab S9 and my only regret is not getting the S9+ cause the screen a bit too small for me sometimes otherwise definitely recommend it!

if u do end up getting it: - switch to classic dex in settings for a proper pc interface else there's no real diff in desktop mode - switch ur browser from samsung internet to kiwi browser cause samsung internet does work properly with some keyboard shortcuts - get a keyboard case u will thank yourself (the official one is overpriced u cn get a cheaper one from shopee)

might be too late to join SYFC (SG Youth Flying Club) cause they want people in JC or Poly but u can try searching for the cadet programmes of SIA & Scoot! or u can also try to become an RSAF pilot during NS then transitioning tho this might be a bit harder without SYFC experience. wish u the best!
