Sakshi Said

Student Background

Sakshi’s goal was to pursue a Masters from a top university and transition to product management roles. There was one big problem: 20+ backlogs and a gap year.

Strengths

One year work experience

Relevant internships & research

Weaknesses

20+ backlogs

A gap year

How We Helped

First our counsellors gave her confidence that she could get into a good university. Then in her documents, we focused heavily on her work related achievements. We also wrote a separate essay justifying the gap, and how she had utilized that one year.
