I am ITE student....already finish paper and graduate.....

Waiting for NS...I am going to know my result tomorrow and which poly to go....

I want to go NS first...I worry I cannot reserve a place in poly...because I have receive no enlistment letter till now...

my friend tell me can call MINDEF and enlsit early...

How old are you? 18 and above or below 18 this year? If it's the former, just wait for your enlistment letter. Otherwise, go to www.ns.sg

Click on: Pre-enlistees -> Register for NS -> Enlist early for NS

Follow the instructions.

they will send u a letter when its time to register for ns. then u need to go online to register. before tt they will ask u whether u want to defer for ns. if u click yes, it will be either a straight approved if they got record of u studying, if not they will ask u send in relevant documents saying u will be studying till then. from what i noe, you CANNOT defer NS for degree courses

that's a good idea. if you can defer, which you should be able too cos you havent defer before.

Both NS or Poly have both pros and cons.....

Command school is too broad. Technically anyone can go SISPEC, depending on how well you perform and whether if you sign on, but only A levels / Poly and above can go OCS.

If I reserve a place, do I need to show them my result slip this year? or wait after 2 year later when I study then give?

yeah like he said above.. but i think, in NS, being a commander let it be a spec or a officer, will look nicer on a job resume and CV, and in some sense you will learn more.. but of course if your whole point in army is to slack, then no matter what you joint or do, you will still slack and wont learn/experience as much as if you can.
