I have limited knowledge based on only one visit, but Yale seems to be as good a place as similar univerisites to study math. Very few people do the major, but those who do are very bright and committed to it. Most of the advanced freshmen take Math 230, which helps build more of a community for math majors. People tend to colloborate on psets, and the psets can be very time-consuming. Most of the people I talked to seemed happy with the major, especially the fact that it is geared towards freshmen who already have significant mathematical experience coming in.
