CTY, Cosmos or other?

<p>(I am currently a sophomore) I did JHU CTY this past summer and it was really fun :slight_smile: however I’m pondering the benefits of the program. So, I plan to do Cosmos probably my junior year because many of the clusters I want to do there (assuming they don’t change much over the years) have pre-req’s i would take my junior year. </p>

<p>My questions are:

  1. Is CTY a legitimate good, educational summer program?
  2. How challenging is it to get into Cosmos (statistics from this past summer would be much appreciated)?</p>
