Mono Intake
Refers to conscripts who are directly enlisted into units and undergo their basic military training there, bypassing the Pulau Tekong BMT. This usually applies to non-obese, low-education level conscripts. The Pulau Tekong BMT is mostly meant for those who have the potential to become commanders, i.e. have an education level of polytechnic or A-level or equivalent. Lowly educated obese recruits also go to Pulau Tekong for BMT but do not participate in the selection for commanders.
