Moving towards hostel every necessary facilities are provided here such as wifi, clean toilets, beds and bedsheets with proper pillow , a cupboard, etc. This course is a compulsary residential course, thus no need to resister separately for it.
Admission
I applied in the top 4 colleges in this field i.e., Tolani Maritime Institute, IMI Noida, SIMS Mumbai And AMET with MAERSK sponsorship at Chennai. I chose this college because i got MAERSK sponsorship and also the fees comparavtively to other colleges is less. Taking about the admission procedure, we need to clear IMUCET and the AMET CET exam and alsowe need to clear the interview with MAERSK (if passes AMET CET exam). Then the comapny conducts the psychological test in which we need to pass. Then we need to complete our medicals from DGS approved doctor and the comapny approved doctor to get into the college. Passport is mandatory while admission. Around 15000 students gets selected in IMUCET exam every year. The cutoffs may vary depending on the competition and students applying for the exams.
Faculty
The faculties here are highly supportive and provides a great knowlege to the cadets. They respect the ideas of students and are highly approachable. They be friendly with the students and always guides them. They maintain the learning environment in the classes. They are always and anytime available for solving your doubts it may be online through chats or calls or physcially. Gauri Shankar Sir is the best sir i like as he provides a perpect knowledge and gives many real life examples. The course curriculum is fully relevant. There are 5 exams conducted per semester i.e., CAT1, CAT2, Model, Practical and End Semester exams. The exams are of intermediate level. Almost all the studnets pass the exams. The failing ratio is very less.
