  If i am enlisting at the same time, same day, school day, nearly same PES (C),but different land code, what are the chances that I will do my bmt, side by side with them?
  
  Silly question, but i hope you know what i mean? Essentially, i am questioning the amount of people usually entering at the same time..

  all pes c r in one company, diff platoons diff land codes or excuses.
  
  platoon 1 - pes c1 l1/2
  platoon 2 - pes c2 l2/3/9
  platoon 3 - pes c3 ... then some excuse heavy loads
  platoon 4 - pes c9 l 9... then some excuse RMJ perm....
  
  something like that.

  thanks...
  so the land code is less relevant doing bmt... so if i am c9l2 and my friend is c9l9, and considering that our excuses only apply to vocations, we have a chance in being together...
  
  cheers again for informative response.

  oh .. new here anyway, i'll like to ask, the PTP part .. the swimming component, what is it about? as in, what is done during this part of the PTP?

  running, marching, jumping = rmj
  
  most probably the guy' legs have physical problem. e.g. leg once fractured b4 enlistment, fractures healed, 'runner's knee', knee/shin problem....

  I cant really swim. But I can hold my breath and swim the fake frog style.
  
  Are there other tests, other than the 1 in the first swimming lesson?
  Or I just need to swim 1 lap and that's all? No more swimming forever?
