From Mechanical Engineering to Petroleum Engineering?

<p>Hi
I am a recent graduate from University of Michigan Ann Arbor (BSE in Mechanical Engineering) and am thinking of applying to several graduate schools. I was thinking of applying to Petroleum engineering as well. (possibly UT-Austin and Texas A&M)</p>

<p>How would someone from Mechanical engineering background do in Petroleum engineering?</p>
