SharePoint 2013 Patching - SP1 upgrade

Hi,

I am planning for an upgrade to my Sharepoint 2013 environment from 15.0.4551.1001 (Oct 2013 CU Foundation) to SP1 and then maybe to a more recent CU. I have a few questions however.

1. Environment I have is SharePoint Server 2013. Therefore, is it possible to upgrade(who so ever did it before me) the environment with OCT CU 2013 Foundation? coz 15.0.4551.1001 is Oct 2013 CU Foundation build.

2. If we leave point 1 for history, I thing I should me applying the newer SP1 build viz. 15.0.4569.1000 (KB2880551 - SharePoint Server 2013). Right?

3. If we zero out on putting a relatively newer CU, maybe DEC 2014 CU or FEB 2015 CU, do I still have to first, apply SP1? Or can I skip SP1 and apply a newer CU?

Thanks in advnce!
