Did anyone apply to either PRIMES or PRIMES USA? https://math.mit.edu/research/highschool/primes/apply
I applied to the PRIMES CS section. Now that the deadline is far past, does anyone want to discuss the problem set problems/post admission results?
I emailed them last month and we’re not allowed to discuss the problems till January 1st. However, there were some on AoPS who got acceptance already.
@Thkim1011 That’s weird, because on their website before they took down the apply page they said we should wait until after December 10. http://web.archive.org/web/20150923102723/http://math.mit.edu/research/highschool/primes/apply.php (right above section 3. ask for letters of recommendation)
Did anyone hear back yet?
I thought PRIMES and PRIMES-USA started January 1, according to their website.
I haven’t heard back yet. I think people start getting admitted around Jan 1st, so they can start as early as that date.
What was your favorite problem? I really liked G1 and G2.
I like the one calculus partial sum of e^x = 1 + x + x^2/2 + … problem. I have a very interesting solution to this.
