hi ripkurl,

i will just have to wait.btw check wit you something.they said they will only inform the shortlisted candidates.if my application status remains as 'application' that means there is still a chance that they have not reviewed my application or there are only 2 'status',i.e. successful and application?

thanks again.

no bro.

i cleared my final interview in Dec 08. then i was 24. I was granted a medical in Jan '09. I received a call and email that my medical was successful. But due to my age, I was asked to contact them again in Apr '10, when I will turn 25 1/2 yrs old.

sent email to HR in Apr '10 and only got my re-medical scheduled in July. And now, still waiting for news...

yupz...

Right, sorry for the misunderstanding.

So my understanding is that you did not try out with the RSAF hence you got rejected at 24 years old?

@anoop: hey.. my medical was on 30 July, 2 weeks after yours. and in your thread (4 weeks after your medical), you mentioned your friend (went same medical with you) got in.. if maths were to be applied, i guess i've a week more to wait. heh... thanks anyway man. all the best for your retest.

@drareg: 99% luck? lol.. well, i guess i'm in that 1%.

i'm just wondering if there's any cadets in this thread right now. if there is, can you guys shed light on whether the attrition rate in the course is high? be it at seletar/jandakot
About 10 to 20%.

@nineh: how? you still waiting for news? it's been a month since my medical. still waiting.

@ripkurl: i understand you went for medical earlier than me. (i went on 30 July) what about you? still waiting too?


I heard from a friend already a cadet; he has a fellow cadet's friend who's having his obs in sept. briefing (aka signing of contract) will be done 3rd Sep.
And based on @drareg, his friend got confirmation for late Oct. Well, this leaves me to guess for those who have yet to be contacted, when our OBS will be.

to all: best way i feel, to know if you've cleared your medical is to call CAAS direct. i did that, and they said i'm in the system and all's fine. just wait for SIA to contact. another way is if you've got anyone who went for medical with you that day.. and was asked to redo his medical. if you're not one contacted for re-medical, i guess you're clear.

just my 2 cents worth.
still, darn it's a long wait.
