[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Smith is a great place for math. Our niece just graduated from there and had two offers for phd programs from Ivy League schools. [/quote] Smith grad here. Math major and PhD from top three university in my field. The math classes at Amherst were more difficult, though Smith faculty were much more supportive. [/quote] My DC was a math major at Amherst who came in with several post-AP courses, so he ended up taking math courses at UMass to fill out his major. I believe Smith students have that option too - a nice advantage of the college consortium. [/quote] NP-- I understand from what you wrote that UMAss has higher level courses than Amhearst and Smith. Did your DC ever consider just attending UMass outright rather than just take classes at UMass? I'm guessing that they wanted a "small college" but do they lose the advantage of being at a small college if they are actually taking classes at a large university? Thanks for any insight! [/quote]
