[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with this, unfortunately. A pure math student needs to be one in a million to really have a lasting impact on campus and as an alum. Most schools would generally prefer to have someone either more creative or commercial, hoping they enhance the community now or donate a building in 20 years. I think some of the STEM and math camps do the same disservice as sports clubs/camps, by implying your kid has a talent that is in demand, when really, at the next level the schools just don't care unless the kid is a profound, genius-level talent. [/quote] +++ But I don't think the math camps promote themselves the way sports clubs do. The math camps are run by mathematicians who want to have fun with kids during the summer, and share some joy with kids who are very isolated at home because math is so lonely. They aren't promoted as a hack to college admissions. [/quote]
