My Ivy League journey | Profile, admits, rejects, tips

In this video, I discuss my admission into an Ivy League university, namely the University of Pennsylvania, for my Master's in Mechanical Engineering program. I reveal my application profile, how I decided on my specialization and university, my admits and rejects, and some tips I have for you guys as you apply to graduate school. This is the first video in a series on this channel where I interview students about their application journeys so that you guys understand how the process works and if your profiles are a good fit for their university.

Does not coming from an IIT or NIT put you at any disadvantage?

[yazhinisurendran]

@sachin, Which comes first? Is it the GRE and TOEFL/IELTS or shortlisting of the universities?

Also would you be able to share your experience in college and the courses/assignments?

[HassanAli-yrjv]

Can I do Ms statistics after Ms math @

[ritvikyadav]

I applied to Stanford this year, like for the 2021-22 session. And I also belong to the mechanical stream only. So I wanted to know that TOEFL / GRE will be a game-changer as they were before the pandemic or not because I received an exemption for both of the exams by Stanford.
