Listen "Love Letters Chapter 3: Mekila"
Episode Synopsis
Mekila's story does not fit into what I have conceptualised as "love letters". Mekila got the Mastercard Foundation Scholarship while he was rounding up the second year of his bachelor's in Cameroon. it was the first scholarship he ever applied for. Throughout the conversation I had with him, I kept asking myself "What is the chance that I can base all my scholarship applications on asking google questions like "google, how do I make a killer academic CV, or google how do I write a killer SOP" because that was exactly what mekila did. I am not sure if that is what you are looking for here. but Mekila has an interesting backstory I encourage everyone to listen to, in the hope that you will find this story as inspiring as I found it. Love letters is a podcast series about scholarship rejections and attempts. Beyond scholarships, it tells a more foundational story of ambition, dreams, and the stuff of success.
