Notes
BSc (3.97/4.00) and MSc (3.94/4.00) in Nuclear Engineering from the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Second MSc in Computer Science and Engineering, partially completed. Strong research experiences, worked on multiple projects, a total 13 publications spanning the areas of computational design and analysis, modeling and simulation etc. I thought I had an excellent SOP and PS, along with strong letters of recommendation. This was my third time applying to MIT and I still got rejected. Depressed and frustrated to this day!
