Hi
I am considering applying to the Budapest Semesters in Mathematics program - has anyone heard about how hard/easy it is to get accepted - do you have the be the next Fermat or Gauss to be confident in your chances? Also, has anyone found this program to be of significant value on grad school applications and such?
Just curious - information on this seems to be very hard to come by. Any info would be appreciated.

Below is some information on an undergraduate math conference. This is a great experience for undergrads to get their feet wet in the never ending world of research and presentations. And even better, not only I am presenting, but I get to help organize this year.

I have recently had several students ask me to write letters of recommendation for them, a task I often enjoy. Some of these recent requests, however, were presented in such a clear and organized manner that I wanted to capitalize on their hard work by summarizing steps that students can take to make the experience as easy and pleasant as possible.

Many of my colleagues have been involved in REUs over the years; I have been working with students too this summer. In this note I'll collect a few of my thoughts on them.

Hi,
I am currently a maths student in doing the part III(extra 4th year) at cambridge uni and am wondering whether to apply for phd's in america.
My first question is: It seems at least some elements of most phd's in america are taught?Is this true.
Secondly:Does anyone know how likely is it that I could get funding?
Thanks for any advise/explanations,
icicle
