AAO agreed the Petitioner failed to establish he is well positioned. His master's degree is a positive factor but insufficient alone; his current position is temporary and the prospective position contingent; recommendation letters lack specificity about impact; citations are modest and not shown to reflect significant interest from relevant parties; NSF funding involvement was not as a named recipient or primary contact; and peer review activity was not shown to represent a record of success.

final merits determination - sustained national or international acclaim
