No doubts this is a great guide…what I want to say is a brief story…
I was in sixth grade in India when my uncle from Ohio paid my family a visit…
At that age, I was really excited to meet him(any relative in general) and skipped school to spend time with him.
When he saw me in that fresh morning, what he said as soon as he entered the doors of my house - “Son!!! I am sending you to MIT…” The very first time I heard about this college and had no Idea what this was. With passage of years and with numerous internet surfing about MIT, my love for this college kept increasing…
I never had the thought about checking the ranking of the school…so much had I fell in love with this school…
I didn’t see the dots connect for only I never knew how was I ever going to move to US…and it was the end of tenth grade when I and my family moved to United States…
My family never understood why was I so excited for this college…when they researched about MIT…I was often discouraged from dreaming about this college…
Even in my junior year in the new high school, all my “Friends” mocked at me or pulled fun of my dreams…felt completely isolated in the new culture…and was lost as to how was I going to achieve the dream…
Today I am a senior in the high school, and my determination has caused my friends and family start believing in me…
My Innocent dream of 6 years… is still under construction…
If I got into MIT, I have no idea how I can ever return my gratitude to YOU @Ouraqt…
I was a 12 year old innocent kid who had no idea what could have happened if he hadn’t skipped his school that ONE day…
FROM MY INNOCENT CHILDHOOD, THROUGH MY YEARS OF ADOLESCENCE(TEENAGE), I NOW WANT TO ACCOMPLISH MY CHILDHOOD DREAM AS I ENTER THE ADULTHOOD…
