[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For math superstars, aren’t you better off going to a large university where you can take graduate level courses when you run out of undergraduate offerings. You can also hang out with math PhDs. What is the appeal of being with 2000 students for 4 years isolated from civilization. Sounds like a nightmare to me [/quote] The average kid at both Williams and Pomona is ridiculously smart. I can't imagine such kids--being the default at both schools--frequently run out of undergrad math offerings, particularly at Pomona where students also have access to Mudd's classes. Of course, if you happen to have a true math prodigy like Terrance Tao, then, yes, you should go to Princeton, MIT, or UCLA at age 16. But such prodigies are rare. And the advantage of Williams or Pomona is that you will get a truly well-rounded education with ample room to explore other disciplines.[/quote]
