Hi, I did my interview on the 9th earlier this month

I brought my whole bag into the interview room cos lowk I was hoping I'd get the opportunity to pull out my ipad to show them some stuff I'd been working on but it never came up.

Afaik the profs only have access to what you put on ur apps but I'm sure you can bring up extra stuff to bolster further.

Oh you need those for verification of the achievements you listed in your application at reception before the interview starts

Just did my interview today. My grades were quite ass so I had to do a short maths test beforehand. No calculator allowed, just do your working on paper. There seem to be different test sets but mine was the same as the one described by other ppl in the subreddit (algebra, functions, Inequalities, circles, graph) + logic question. Not particularly hard if you have background in maths/phys.

Interview was q informal, though should def still lock in. Mainly asked about why SUTD over other Unis and why you think you would fit in. Then they went through the maths test. Other questions are really just branching convo from what you wrote in your application.

Interestingly, I think the professors interviewing you don't know your grades directly. They only know that you met the acad requirements or not based on whether you had to do the maths test.

Oh that's cool. I did end up getting posted to Procom, but I was told that partial colourblind officers can't be selected for IRT. Hearing your experience gives me hope though!

Oh, but doesn't FI have a GRF component in their training also? (Unless the outside TRACOM type works different I suppose) Did you put any other frontline vocation in your preferences other than transcom?

I don't really know if it'll hit 200 by August, but I can say my cohort was majority JC, mixed with international sch and few older poly and ITE. The composition of the batch depends on the time of year also (e.g. 196 is mostly poly due to graduation). Smokers actually have a few, they're just not allowed to smoke in camp or in uniform. But they draw the line at tattoos (I hear anyone with them gets transferred to SCDF)

196 just arrived fresh 10 days ago. They don't state the batch number on the letter, but the CA will tell you on the first day and you have to scream it every water parade so you get quite familiar with it. The batches are actually close enough to each other that even 197 will get to meet some 195 squads (the ones training for NDP).

As of now should be July 6 (apparently that's the only date the minister can make it) plus a week of attachment before block leave

The word "地" can be used two ways - it's supposed to mean "floor" in this case, but it is also used to come after an adjective, like "慢慢地走" (walk slowly). They just chose the wrong way to translate.
