3. How do you define success?

The response for MYEP has been amazing. Currently, we have 65 student participants and I am really looking forward to watching all of you participate in the upcoming MYEP training. I am even more excited about the possibility of having a large amount of Summer Internship. This opportunity has the potential to be an amazing journey for participating iMeck students and will prove to be a great resume builder.
