You might as well do FM training if you are non-sgp because the time of training< time taken for full reg

Oh yes. Good suggestion. Thank you.
Am I allowed to apply for more than one residency in the same cycle?

you are just limiting your options and subjecting yourself to a tough year

I am a local grad (next year). To bump my question whats the HO base pay + call allowance (post-NS) these days? Is there the grab benefit?

Oh no that wasn't me. So is it 4500 base + 500 (NS)? Then extra call/round allowances?

Is this true? I thought locally trained foreigners/PR should be ok? (mostly duke)

Think it’s 5k base plus 500 plus call + phone and grab allowance
