“I was a little worried about not having enough formal or academic preparation. It wasn't until I met my classmates that I realized there's really no such thing as a typical background for the program… All of us were strong in some areas and less experienced in others. I think this diversity is one of the program's assets; I learned something from each one of my classmates. ”
