GSK Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Common Questions About GSK
What topics are covered in the GSK syllabus for a GP Rating?
The GSK syllabus includes important areas like Ship Construction, Deck Machinery, Anchoring and Mooring, Cargo Handling, Maintenance work such as Painting and Chipping, Life Saving Appliances, and Basic Navigation principles.
How accurate is the "DG Shipping Reference Examination" question set?
This set is very accurate. It is created from real questions that have appeared in previous DG Shipping online exit exams for GP Ratings and CCMC.
What is the passing mark for the GSK Exit Exam?
Generally, you need to score a minimum of 50% to pass the online exit exam. However, we recommend aiming for 60% or higher to secure a good score.
Why is Cargo Work such a key topic?
Cargo Work is vital because it directly relates to the safety of the ship and everyone on board. Expect frequent questions on topics like safe working loads, dunnage, and cargo ventilation in both exams and interviews.
Can these practice questions help with Deck Cadet interviews?
Yes, definitely. Our "Important MCQ Mix" and "Navigation Image Based" sets are particularly useful for preparing for sponsorship and company interviews.
