Women's special entry scheme:-


-women recruits are usually taken into the support services, with a large number serving as medical officers and nurses. The wses for officers offers non-technical, technical and specialist entry for unmarried females or issueless widow or divorcee candidates not below 19 years and above 27 years and having b a, b com, bca, b sc in physics, chemistry and maths with a minimum aggregate of 60 per cent and above marks. Moreover, students with 50 per cent marks and holders of ncc `c' certificates with `b' or higher grade can also apply in this category.


-for technical entry be, b tech or equivalent or a higher qualification in civil or electrical or mechanical or electronics engineering, computer science, telecommunications engineering and architecture is needed. Specialist entry is for those with 50 per cent marks in:



* graduate b sc with a minimum one-year diploma in computer science
* graduate with a minimum one-year diploma in communication or journalism or public relations or psychology
* b e in remote sensing
* p g degree in earth science/ computer science/ english/ geography/ maths/ physics/ computer applications/ botany/ zoology/ biochemistry/ organic chemistry or statistics


-month of commencement of course in each year is march and september. Selection is based on written exam and ssb interview and medical examination. Candidates should apply directly in response to advertisement in june/december. Women officers receive training at officers training academy, chennai.



-in women special entry scheme, the initial contractual period is five years but in case any candidate is found unfit or unsuitable within first six months, her commission can be terminated any time before the expiry of the five year period. The scheme further provides that all the lady officers granted commission under this scheme would serve the indian army for a period of five years from the date of grant of commission subject to fulfillment of other conditions. In addition, the lady officers carry reserve liability to serve the indian army for a period of five years plus two years on voluntary basis, or upto 37 years of age, whichever is earlier. It means that after their release, the lady officers remain on reserve for five years and can be recalled for duty during this period in case of emergencies. This period could be extended by two more years if the officer so desires or upto 37 years of age, whichever is earlier. Wses(o), however, does not have any provision for permanent commission, although this matter is said to be under consideration of the government of india. Lady officers in the two entries other than wses(o), like amc, adc, etc, however, have the provision for permanent commission.


-short-listing of eligible candidates is done at the additional directorate level and the short-listed candidates are then required to appear before the service selection board (ssb). The selected candidates are then required to undergo a medical examination which is usually done by a special medical board at the nearest military hospital. The broad indications of medical standards are that the height and weight should not be less than 36 kgs and 142 cms respectively for women candidates. Corrected distance vision should be at least 6/6 for better eye and 6/18 for the worse eye and myopia of not more than minus 5.5 d includin

Physical requirements for women in the Army are outlined in Army Regulation (AR) 40-501: "Standards of Medical Fitness." Army females must reach minimum height and weight requirements and cannot exceed weight limits commensurate to their height. Females cannot be pregnant when entering the Armed Services. All soldiers must be able pass the Army's Physical Fitness Test (APFT). However, women have to pass the test at different standards than men.

Height

Females in the Army must be at least 4' 10" (58 inches). The upper height limit imposed by the Army is 6' 8" (80 inches).

Weight

Female soldiers who weigh more than Army standards set forth are put on the Army Weight Control Program.

Female soldiers must adhere to weight standards. AR 40-501 includes a height vs. weight ratio table. If a female soldier exceeds her maximum permitted weight, her body fat will be calculated. Female soldiers exceeding weight and body fat will be put on the Army Weight Control Program in accordance with AR 600-9; those who continue to exceed their maximum weight and body fat will be discharged from military service. (Note that if a female exceeds the standards set forth in AR 40-501 before enlisting in Army service, she will be refused entry until she meets the standards.)
