Hi, I have to make a decision whether to accept my invitation to Ross Mathematics Program. I was wondering how valuable it would be a college resume and/or learning.

If I decline the invitation I will be volunteering as a teaching robotics at a local Carnegie Mellon University summer program and preparing for olympiads (USAMO, USACO, USABO etc.). It should be noted, that there is a slim possibility of doing research at a local university.

Any input or information as to which option I should pick, in different circumstances, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
