Not sure if your Class 12 marks are good enough for Merchant Navy? Here is the exact requirement across every route.
Book Your Seat →📌 These are the minimum requirements for most programmes. The actual selection bar at top companies like Maersk, Anglo Eastern and Fleet Management is higher — because their written tests and interviews are competitive. Strong marks help, but coaching and preparation matter more than marks alone.
Some institutes accept 55% or even 50% for direct admissions. Government IMU campuses typically require 60% PCM. Private institutes may be more flexible. Sponsorship programmes at major companies generally require 60% PCM as a minimum just to apply.
If you are just below 60% — speak to our counsellors. There may still be a route depending on your exact scores and which programme you are targeting. Call us and we will tell you honestly.
Not entirely. DNS Sponsorship selection is based on written tests, psychometric evaluation, and personal interviews — not your board marks alone. 9CC has seen students with 65% marks outperform students with 85% marks in company selection, because the selection tests require specific preparation that Class 12 boards do not provide.
This is precisely why coaching matters. Your board percentage gets you in the room. Your test preparation gets you the sponsorship.
Minimum 50% in English is required from Class 10 or Class 12. Communication skills are tested in sponsorship interviews and psychometric evaluations. 9CC's soft skills and communication coaching is a core part of every batch for exactly this reason.
