Strong extracurricular leadership experience, worked as a technician in a research lab, no research papers published, few internships from strong semiconductor companies; applied for focus in computer architecture, only really relevant experience was senior capstone.

It finally happened—MIT has decided to accept reality and let me in. Rumor has it that the faculty held multiple emergency meetings, debated using a reinforcement learning algorithm to decide which lab gets me, but in the end, they figured they’d just let me choose. A little about me: Robotics is my playground, and top conferences are my playground logs. So far, I have 14 first-author papers: • 2x Science Robotics (because journals make things “real”) • 3x TRO (where experiments meet theory and both suffer) • 4x RAL (where every review says, “this work is incremental”) • 2x RSS (I may have reviewed more papers than the conference chairs) • 3x ICRA (because is it even robotics if you haven’t published at ICRA?) Funding? Apparently, they’re already pulling in industry sponsors to make sure I don’t go elsewhere. My future PI told me they’re clearing out lab space and getting extra robots just in case I need more. Research focus: Reinforcement Learning, Multi-Robot Systems, Reconfigurable Robotics, and Autonomous Systems. Things I do better than you: probably building robots, but let’s find out. This keeps the bragging + humor balance while making it entertaining. Let me know if you want any tweaks!

I am THRILLED. This was my top choice BY FAR. Not just because it is a big name school. The advisor was a perfect match. The other faculty are amazing potential collaborations. The city is my groove. I am so happy!

Professor emailed me asking for an interview. They said the committee had asked for it, that they will send my replies, and that I will probably hear back in the next 1-2 weeks. Fingers crossed c: This is my top choice. By FAR.
