Computer Science, Stanford University International student, four internships at Big Techs, one year of work experience, two weak publications, 2 of those Big Tech internships were on research teams, a recommendation letter from Stanford Ph.D. (previous manager), a strong recommendation from a professor at Uni and a previous manager at Big tech. Idk, I am kind of disappointed I didn't get in. I know it is highly competitive and stuff, but I prepared so hard for this. I have a great resume, but I come from a very bad university in Latin America if you compare to any other of those US universities. Not sure if this may have had anything to do with it (maybe I had a bad application and just did not realize hahaha), but I wish I could know what they took into account in their decision. Well, congrats to those who were accepted; you should be really proud of yourself. I hope you guys enjoy your time at Stanford!

Computer Science, Stanford University First off, I want to formally thank my close freinds, advisors, and mentors for believing. I want to especially thank my mom. She worked double shifts just to keep a roof over my sisters and I ever the past few years. Second, I’d like to say FUCK YOU to all the people who said I wasn’t “smart enough†or said my goals were too high for my expectations. Your skepticism and negative treatment only fueled my determination. Third, I’d like to say a special huge GO FUCK YOURSELF to one of my high school teachers and to one of my EECS Professors at Berkeley. Both of you doubted my abilities and underestimated my abilities as a student, particularly highlighting both of my physical and health challenges as a barrier to my success in the engineering field. You thought that being in a wheelchair would prevent me from achieving milestones in my life. You would have never thought a guy in a wheelchair could BOTH get a job at Google w/ a 6-fig salary AND get into Stanford Graduate Engineering school in the same month. WELL GUESS WHAT BITCHES. I DID IT. LOOK WHOSE WINNING NOW. 🖕😤🖕 (mic drop)
