[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It fully depends on what you do as a major. I don't think a Pomona Physics major is much different from a Brown Physics major, but a Brown math major will do more work than a Pomona linguistics major.[/quote]
A Pomona math major will do more work than a Brown math major, I can assure you.[/quote]

This is so not true.  Brown’s undergraduate applied math is generally ranked #2 or 3 and pure math 5 or 6.  Pomona has one math program and it isn’t even in the top 25.  Brown placed 8th in the Putnam Math Competition last year.  Pomona was not even the top 25.  A quick perusal of the [b]respective course catalogs shows Brown undergraduate courses > 8x that of Pomona. [/b] Roughly 1/2 of the pure math concentrators at Brown go on to top 5 Ph.D pure math programs. You are so wildly off base about this it’s laughable.

This statement is wholly inconsistent with any rational conversation concerning math or, as you like to call “applied math” for pre-professionals, statistics.[/quote]
I’m also wondering if they went on hyperschedule.io and checked for math at Scripps, Pomona, Mudd, CMC, CGU (have to go to their catalog) and Pitzer where Pomona students are able to take math courses. [/quote]
