Subject: Want to join merchant navy but which way to prefer?
Date: 7-Mar-2002
Question: Dear Sir/Madam,
I have given my 12th class boards exams and now i have decided to join
merchant navy. I wear spectacles so I have to go on engine side. I want to
join directly but my parents are against it. They say I must complete my
engineering and then join merchant navy as I will be having a degree then. I
am totally confused. Please tell me what is the difference in joining merchant
navy directly and after having an engineering degree.
Answer: You have not written about your engineering competition rank. I am assuming
you have cleared the entrance exams. Are you getting the line of choice, and
college of choice? if yes, I would suggest that you do your engineering
first.
If you are compromising on line of liking and also college, don't compromise
more. Go for Merchant Navy. You will be happier. Explain your happiness
point of view to your parents and take their blessings.
