Preliminary Viva || Tips For Overcome

After preliminary medical checkup, comes preliminary viva. It’s a simple part and most probably the easiest part of the selection process. But still some unfortunate applicants fail to pass this test.

Many people fail this test simply because they are afraid of this viva. Remember that this viva is nothing.

-A lot of people don’t get selected because they are very weak in English.

-Some get out because they try to be over smart.

Preliminary Medical Test || Tips and Introduction

*Many people can not pass the preli medical checkup simply because they have knock-knee (knees touch each other when someone stands straight keeping their feet in V shape) or flat foot.

          *Some will also get out because they have hernia or piles.

*If your hands sweat more than normal you will not get a chance to be in BMA (hands will be checked in the Final Medical Checkup after ISSB).

The Steps of BMA || In Shortly with Flowchart

The life of a cadet (you will be called a Cadet in training period) is very hard. Mind it that according to toughness Bangladesh Military Academy (BMA) is at number two position (first one is PMA). So to just survive the two year long training period you have to be strong- yes, of course “Physically”, but most importantly  “mentally” . You can be the fittest person of the world but still you will not be able to complete the training if you are mentally weak.

The Selection Process || At Army,Navy,Airforce

The selection process of an army officer is very sophisticated. But the good thing about it is there is no fixed number of “seats”. That’s why if you can fulfill the requirements you will get selected for sure. It has four stages or steps & pointed them down in brief.

1. First Step: Preliminary Examination:

The Minimum Requirements || Joining any Defence Force

Introduce & Rewards || Joining Defence As an Comissioned Officer

If you love a lot of money in your hand, then Army is not your dream job. Just like any other government job it pays less “in cash”. But there are thousands of other benefits and privileges which you and your family members can enjoy (much more than any other government job).

1. The honor in serving MY country: I don’t know about you, but whenever I think that a military person has the unique privilege of fighting and dying for its country, my respect for this job increases. The honor of a martyr is immense even in the eyes of the Almighty Allah.
