Hi people, I have already finished my ROSS and PROMYS applications. Can someone provide me a comparison between these two programs? Thank you so much in advance!
Just wondering, did you solve all of the problems?
There are two pretty in-depth threads about Ross that you can find by searching "ross math college confidential on Google (“Why You Should Consider the Ross Mathematics: A Letter Program” and “All You Ever Wanted to Know About Ross”) and the latter includes a comparisons to PROMYS. There are also a bunch of Ross vs. PROMYS vs. HCSSIM threads. They’re all a few years old, but the information still applies.
My understanding is that Ross is more oriented towards number theory while PROMYS offers more variety. Both are great programs, but my impression is that Ross is slightly more intense.
