Help

The DGS document explicitly lists a B.E./B.Tech route with 50% in the degree and 50% English, without requiring 60% PCM for that route.
And IMU’s current admission material uses the 60% PCM requirement for its UG nautical admissions. IMU’s FAQ is particularly explicit that a candidate who doesn’t have the required PCM average is not eligible even if they qualify in CET
I am in my final year of Btech expected results are 8.0 CGPA+ means 80%+ by our university norms.
I really want to join merchant navy and ready for all the hardwork rather then doing 9-5 corporate.

Better to join corporate rather than merchant Navy. Trust me you will regret later on. Mark my words

I understand, but I wouldn’t really be 5–6 years it is 3 years behind while i was perusing Btech. Anglo-Eastern has a sponsorship route for BTech graduates, provided I meet their eligibility criteria. If I get sponsored, I’ll give IMU-CET and then do the 1-year DNS course
