I am a first-generation college student and an immigrant. Growing up in India, I experienced 10-12 hours of power cuts which made me pursue engineering. I started my undergrad in India but eventually transferred to the US (UIUC), where I finished my Mechanical Engineering degree. I’ve been working at a leading energy firm since 2019.

Great stats but for M7 it’ll be tough especially since you have no promotions. T15 will get you the same opportunities just apply broadly not just M7. Apply to other T15 programs to be safe.
