I recently received an admissions offer from ISB along with personal invites to look into the MBA programs at MIT, NYU, and Yale. These experiences are more than just highlights of my journey, they are rays of optimism and evidence that following your passions is worthwhile ❤️ This is not a narrative about me, it's a story for everyone who has ever been told they don't measure up... with a board exam score of 65%, which many said would restrict my options. However, here I am, with admissions to some of the world's most prominent universities. My journey wasn't usual. Rather than limiting myself to academics, I immersed myself in everything I loved, including sports and music. These interests were frequently viewed as diversionary, but in actuality, they were the precise factors that molded my particular tale. They imparted to me knowledge that a classroom could not: resilience, creativity, and leadership. Among my accomplishments were placing second in the CBSE Chess Clusters, winning at the Panorama Gaming Awards, leading the house cricket team to victories, and receiving awards for music mixing. I was the only student in my school to achieve perfect aptitude ratings. Even yet, I was called a failure since I received a 65% on my boards, and my successes were all written off as unimportant because they had no bearing on my academic score. Our society tends to be fixated on perfection at times, viewing a high score as the sole means of achievement while sometimes overlooking the depression and anxiety it causes. However, life is far more abundant than a score. Not only are the admissions from ISB and the invites from MIT, NYU, and Yale personal successes, but they also send a strong, unambiguous message to anyone who has ever had self-doubt because they don't match the stereotypical definition of success. If you're out there feeling boxed in by scores or societal expectations, let this be a reminder: You are capable of incredible things. Your journey might not look like everyone else's, and that's okay. In fact, it's more than okay—it's wonderful👏 Cheers to every person who dares to chase their vision! Even though your path isn't straight, it is still yours and has a lot of potential. Together, let's redefine success and show that "won't lead you anywhere" narratives just mean we're headed somewhere amazing! #LifeBeyondSchoolGrades #MentalHealthAwareness #MBAJourney #IvyLeague #ISB
