The full meaning of SSC is Short Service Combatant, and upon commission you will be decorated with the rank of Second Lieutenant. You must have either HND or Bsc minimum of second class lower. Your course of study doesn't matter becos you will be posted to wherever the Army want you to be. If you find your way into the Army through the SSC, you can get to the rank of Major General. You are expected to spend 10 years in the Army but you will go for conversion before the expiration of the the tenure for you to get converted to a Regular Combatant, which will give you the chance to reach the peak of your career otherwise you will retire as a captain or major. Many people do think that once they join the Army, promotion won't be a problem. Promotion to next rank requires hard work becos if one is not sound academically and mentally, compulsory retirement will be the way out. Standard examination even more difficult than the once you did in higher institution awaits you, which is the only assessment that can cause setback for a commissioned officer. However, the Army is an accommodating organisation once you plan your career very well. Hope I have been able to aquaint you to some of the information you asked for? 7 Likes |
