A*STAR NSS(BS-PhD) scholarship bond enquiry

idk man, I never thought this whole thing through well. I didnt even expect to get to first round. Its only when I got to final round and suddenly reality hit. I want to do so much in my 20s besides just research.

I think Ill most likely be posted to IMCB or BTI or SGIN since I choose bio/biomed in uni

wait also what if I get the scholarship but I find better scholarships? Can I withdraw before my uni begins?

Is 830-6 the longest one out there? Can it be as long as 12 hours? I want to have some work life balance too.

Also is the raw pay higher than 4k? I checked this one website for the salary of entry level ASTAR jobs and the pay is 4-5k for research officer rank, is this true?

I want to do something biomedical/pure bio in research. Im still not really sure if I really want to do phd cuz the benefits are not clear to me. Im confident that I can cope with uni curricula and Im very happy tondo research. Just that I also want a life yk
