You are in the United States, right? Could you kindly tell me how one applies to the IIT universities while in the United States? (I beg the pardon of people who expect discussion of Caltech here on this Caltech forum.

) We are not desis here--our children are of mixed "white" American and Taiwanese ancestry--but I am very supportive of seeking out multicultural learning experiences, and I am wondering how an American would apply to test into IIT.
I attended Caltech's regional information meeting in my town this school year (he said to return to the topic of the forum) and met a man who was a math major at Caltech and who knows lives in our town (where he grew up) designing REALLY COOL 3-D graphics software that everyone in the animation industry has heard of. A local boy, just turned thirteen years old, is studying the software in one local college class while taking the
U. of MN accelerated math course for high school students, which the Caltech alum in town had done before he went off to Caltech. He is eager to go to Caltech, and that may rub off on my son, who sees him in both of those local courses.
Congratulations on your achievements to date, good luck on the AIME, and welcome over to Brand X :cough:Art of Problem Solving:cough: for practice in problem solving.
