His advice to fellow Indian juniors & peers!
“Don’t chase activities to impress colleges, pursue what impresses you. It’s not the length of your resume that tells your story, but the heartbeat behind it. Colleges don’t admit achievements, they admit people whose passions make those achievements matter”
