Hi friends, after passing my 10th from Bihar Board, how can I join Merchant Navy? I came to know that it is difficult for the Bihar Board students to join Merchant Navy. Is it true?

••• If you really want to join Merchant Navy, then I would like to suggest you to complete your 12th from CBSE Board and then go for IMU entrance exam.

••• But if you want to join Merchant Navy just after 10th then you can go as a crew member on board.
And for that you have to do GP rating course.

No, It is not that much difficult to join merchant navy if you have good communication skill and good at academic. You basics must be clear that's the only thing required.

You can join the Merchant Navy after class 10 by doing a GP(General Purpose) Rating course. It is a 6 Months long course pre-sea training course. The advantage is that you would get Indian CDC in 6 months and you could sail across the globe.
