I was waitlisted--not sure about the process or what comes next. Still hopeful!

Hello.

I am currently a undergraduate graduating Spring 2018 with a bachelors in biomedical engineering. I do not have any work experience within the industry; however, I have 3.5 years of undergraduate research. My question is regards to having work experience.

Does everyone within the program typically have work experience within the industry???

I am interested in partaking in this program because I plan to become a leader within industrial biomedical research and possibly leading or starting my own company someday. I was reading the website and they mention that it is recommended that you have 2 years of work experience within the industry. Can you comment on whether everyone within the program usually has this? Is there some cases in which some don't. I am just wanted to better assess my chances before applying and whether I should wait a few years after I am in a company.


Thanks!


You need experience. You don't have anything to contribute to the program if you don't. You also cannot make the most of the program without professional experience.


^ This isn’t entirely true. I’m currently an LGO ‘19 and there’s a member of our class who came directly from undergrad, although he did start his own biomedical device company while in school. So if you’re able to apply your research to a start-up or show other business/industry-related experience it is technically possible. Although, keep in mind that (in the LGO Class of 2019 at least) only 1 person has this background out of a class of 49...

Re: Calling all MIT LGO Applicants: (2018 Intake) Class of 2020!! [#permalink]
Hi guys,

I'm having a lot of trouble writing the MIT essays. The prompts are as follows:

    1) Tell us about a recent technical problem you faced at work. How did you solve the problem? 500- words
    2) Write a short description outlining your why you would like to enroll in the engineering department you chose. Feel free to explain your academic interests, career goals, and why the department's relationship with LGO fits your interests and plans during and after MIT LGO. 300- words.

What style should I be writing them in? I wrote number 1 as a narrative and 2 in more formal business language, but my reviewer suggested I switch that.

Does anyone know when we will hear back from LGO about invites for Round 2? Also did people get an email confirming their application was complete?

My interviewer had mentioned they would notify us by Dec 15th. So it is likely that calls may go out today.
