Dr Jagdish P Yadav has been instrumental in my successful transition from a school to a university in Canada. He deftly mixed monitoring of my academic progress and academic guidance with a university, college and career readiness counseling keeping in mind the future job outlook. And this made a difference for me and kept me on course to a successful transition in a program of my choice at the university. Dr Yadav tirelessly encouraged and supported me and helped me draft a compelling expression of interest.
