Dear sam11owen,

Since you are from an over-represented profile in the global MBA applicant pool, having industry experience that is a bit different can be helpful in distinguishing you from other Indian engineers. Of course, being from a different industry is not all you will need to do to be competitive or stand out, but it is a great aspect of your background to leverage in this endeavor.

Good luck,
Lisa
