<p>Does anyone know if Mathpath is beneficial to academics or to the high school transcript or in any way! I have the opportunity to go, but i'm not too sure if it is worth the 3500$. Any comments</p>
<p>Mathpath is for middle schoolers. The high school version is MathCamp <a href="http://www.mathcamp.org%5B/url%5D">www.mathcamp.org</a>. Great program! We have found it well worth the money for my son to go for the past 4 summers.</p>
<p>You shouldn't need to ask about whether a program that lets you meet John Horton Conway up close and personal is worthwhile. He is just one of the famous mathematicians at MathPath. And besides meeting them, you are able to get to know the other students. I've heard from various participants or friends of participants in MathPath from the last three years, and they all say MathPath was a great experience, very worthwhile.</p>
