MPC to MIT, Purdue, and Beyond: Real Stories of Hyderabad Students Studying Abroad
Image description Image description

For many students in Hyderabad, choosing MPC is the first step toward engineering. However, it has evolved into much more. Students are now looking beyond Indian entrance exams. With the right guidance, SAT preparation, profile building, and mentorship, many students are targeting global universities like the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Purdue University, and the University of Pennsylvania to become successful Hyderabad students studying abroad.


At Resonance Global Campus in Hyderabad, several students have begun building international careers right after Intermediate. Here are a few student stories in a simple Q&A format, sharing their experiences, fears, and dreams.


“I never thought studying abroad was possible for me”

The biggest challenge for students is confidence. Changing from a regular environment to suddenly improving  communication skills, aptitude, and SAT preparation all at once. Balancing MPC academics with SAT prep was initially difficult, but successfully possible!


“I have always been interested in technology and innovation. Honestly, I thought foreign universities were only for top students or those from wealthy families. When I joined Resonance, I began to learn about the SAT, scholarships, and university applications properly.” - Shaurya Sreekar among best Indian students at US universities who got selected in top 4 colleges like Purdue University, University of Massachusetts, University of Minnesota, University of Indiana Bloomington.


What helped students the most?  

“Mentoring sessions were incredibly helpful. The faculty guided us step by step. Even small things like writing SOPs, practicing interviews, and managing time made a big difference.”  - Lokesh Kunta - who got into Michigan State University. 


At Resonance, we help students by giving 360 mentorship & guidance. Structured preparation schedules, mock tests, concept-focused learning, and mentoring support so they could prepare for both Indian competitive exams and international admissions side by side.


Did you feel pressure managing everything?  

What inspires today’s students is seeing seniors from similar academic backgrounds move toward these goals. The journey is no longer limited to students from international curricula. Students from Hyderabad’s MPC stream are now confidently applying abroad while continuing their academic preparation in India.

“Definitely. MPC itself is intense. Along with that, SAT prep, applications, essays, and extracurriculars felt overwhelming at times. However, Resonance structured everything well, which reduced stress.” - Advaith - Ohio University.


What was your reaction after receiving admits?  

One important lesson shared by successful students is that improvement happens gradually. Not everyone starts with a high score. Some students improve from 1000 to 1300+. Some move from average mock scores to excellent final scores. Some take time to build confidence in English sections. The key difference is consistency. Students at Resonance who kept practicing regularly, analyzing mistakes, and improving step-by-step eventually saw results.


“Honestly, I couldn’t believe it. Seeing the acceptance letter from Purdue University felt unreal. My parents were emotional because studying abroad was always a distant dream for us. Truly a study abroad success story from Resonance.” - Ram Saketh, University of Sydney


For the dream of Hyderabad students studying abroad 

Today, Resonance students from MPC backgrounds are attending universities across the U.S., U.K., Canada and Australia, including Michigan State University, the University of Southampton, the University of Sydney, and Curtin University. What once seemed impossible is now becoming achievable for many Hyderabad students through proper mentoring, structured preparation, and international exposure.


At Resonance Global Campus, students are not just preparing for exams. They are getting ready for global careers, bigger opportunities, and a future without boundaries. Because sometimes, the journey from MPC doesn’t end with engineering. Sometimes, it begins there.
