I can answer any questions as well! My brother is a senior at Pomona as well so hopefully I can provide both the first and last year perspectives on a lot of issues. I can particularly help with: STEM (I’m a math/CS major), athletics (I’m an ultimate player), mock trial, OTL/outdoors, and ballroom dance.

I’ll echo all of EndOfTheWorld’s answers and add that the faculty here are really focused on getting out of your way and letting you succeed. The math department is letting me skip out of vector calculus and intro analysis for next semester (I will most likely be taking Number Theory and Real Analysis or Abstract Algebra), and the CS department has let me skip out of their entire core intro sequence based on past experience.
