Hi everyone,
Thank you again for such valuable feedback… I have learned so much from this forum! I wanted to post an update, since a few of you have asked. My son applied to Oxford; he was shortlisted, did his interviews, and will hear results on January 11. He also decided to apply REA to Princeton, and he found out last week that he was admitted. It was a very happy day. Because of Covid, we haven’t been able to visit anywhere, but he’s extremely excited even so. We’ll visit on one of their Preview days in April. He’d already finished his other applications, so we’ll hear more decisions in April. That list includes Harvard, Yale, Chicago, MIT, Caltech, and some of the UC’s.
Finally, some of you were wondering what large state schools he applied to. He ended up putting early applications in at Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Utah. All of them seemed to have excellent math departments with very friendly, supportive, and welcoming faculty.
That’s our update— Wishing everyone a great holiday and a safe and happy new year!
Good luck on Tuesday! I was just wondering if anyone here had applied to Oxbridge this year as the main sub-forum has been a bit quiet, and thought perhaps the pandemic issues had put students off applying overseas.
