<p>Hi Michelle</p>
<p>Thanks for that insight. He does love math and it comes easily to him. It will be his major and he wants to get his doctorate in math, so it sounds ideal. On the other hand interests often change in college. Additionally, I wonder if it would be exciting for him or overwhelming to do something so intense straight out of the gate?</p>
<p>Sometimes I think programs that start sophomore year make good sense as kids get a chance to settle into college and explore a bit before committing to something so rigorous.</p>
<p>Thanks again for the comments. I will pass them along.</p>
