Priyanka here from ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, your background in Chemical Engineering with experience in banking/financial services and entrepreneurship could make for an interesting profile, especially with a long-term goal of building a profitable energy business.
However, with around 1 year of work experience, it may be quite early for programs like Harvard, which typically admit candidates with 4–5 years of professional experience on average. It is also possible that the Imperial MSc rejection could be related to application timing, program fit, or other parts of the application rather than just academics.
Please share more details about
1. GMAT/GRE score
2. Your current professional role and impact/achievements there
3. Your entrepreneurial experience and the type of business you worked on
