\nCongratulations to IMACS graduate Rachel Gologorsky who will attend Harvard this fall.\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Rachel began attending IMACS<\/a> as a first grader. Homeschooled since third grade, she has always made time for IMACS in a busy schedule that revolved around competitive chess. While rising to the rank of #1 player in the US and #15 player in the world among girls under 14 and later attaining the title of Woman FIDE Master at just 16 years old, Rachel completed IMACS’ Advanced Math Enrichment<\/a> and university-level courses in Computer Science<\/a> and Logic for Mathematics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As a high school student, Rachel earned A’s in multiple undergraduate math, science and computer science courses taken at Carnegie Mellon. She also scored a perfect 2400 on the SAT on her first attempt and earned 5’s on all of her Advanced Placement exams, including Computer Science A, Calculus BC, Statistics and Physics C.<\/p>\n

Rachel chose Harvard<\/b>, where she plans to major in Computer Science and Mathematics. She credits IMACS<\/a> for motivating her to choose Computer Science as a major.<\/p>\n

“IMACS fostered precisely the clear, logical thought processes necessary to succeed in advanced math and computer science classes. It is very important, both in math and computer science, to be able to think in an abstract manner, and I am grateful that IMACS prepared me very well.”<\/font><\/b>\n<\/div>\n
