<p>I have a somewhat related question on programs looking better to colleges. My D attended a six-week residential math camp the last two summers called Texas Mathworks. She loved it and it made a big impact on her. The program is identical to the Ross program in Ohio which I have seen mentioned on CC. The program has connections to Stanford but my D is worried that colleges outside of Texas and Stanford won’t know anything about it. In her applications should she try to describe the program? Also, for this coming summer my D got invited back as a junior counselor but she is torn between that and trying to go to a more well-known camp. So she is applying to some other math and physics programs and will have to decide if she gets any other acceptances. (She told the camp director about her plans and he was very supportive) Junior counselor would involve mentoring a group of younger students and working on a research project as well as attending classes and guest speakers. Any advice for my D would be appreciated. Thanks.</p>
