Accelerated math at Yale

<p>So i have posted a couple of times on this board and am interested by math 230 given that it starts with pretty basic material, but accelerates through a lot of stuff in one year. i posted this on the main board too but I wanted to see what people thought.</p>

<p>I am a rising senior who is interested in math. I have a 4.0 in math and science at my school, but it really is not challenging and am going to end up only having learned BC Calc, though we will learn infinite series and stokes theorem. I am on the fastest math track at my school, but it doesnt move as quickly as i can learn.</p>

<p>I have done really well on math contests and get combined scores of 200-220 on the AMC+AIME (qualified for the USAMO once) and generally impress people with my creativity to compensate with my lack of knowledge of more advanced math.</p>

<p>Because I am starting with a relatively low point in the amount of math I know, I am looking for schools where I can learn at a faster pace than normal, even though I do not know that much math. Do you think Yale and math 230 would be a good fit?</p>

<p>btw, my SAT/ACT scores are 2380/35 and my SAT II scores are 800,800,800 and will not be applying for financial assistance.</p>

<p>BC calc will not put you at all behind, but yes. Yale and math 230 seems to be perfect. Simply decide whether you like the other aspects at Yale.</p>

<p>Sounds great! anyone else care to contribute?
(i think yale is awesome btw with its res college system. I really hope to get in.)</p>
