您拋出了很好的問題，這就是為什么申請美高的學生我們強烈建議要進行校園參觀和面試，美高在孩子的整個求學生涯中發(fā)揮著非常重要的作用，一定要找到跟孩子right fit的學校，適合的才是最好的。 關于學生對學校的感受，不同的孩子的感受是不一樣的，因為他們對學校的需求也是不一樣的，所以沒法兒武斷地決定，所以最好的方式還是孩子在做了校園參觀和面試以后，對學校的了解會很直觀，同時學校的校園文化和氛圍等等的感受是最直觀的。 關于Stony Brook，我也多次參訪該校，并且學生的總體反饋還是不錯的，學校的創(chuàng)新中心是學校的一大亮點，我在去年12月參訪該校的時候，跟創(chuàng)新中心的主任深入聊了很長的時間，學校的機器人和STEM還是非常強的；此外在體育方面，學校的帆船也是非常強的，再者就是依托紐約市的資源等等，都是學校的核心優(yōu)勢和特色。 此外，美高沒有權威的排名，每個學校的特色還是很鮮明的，所以一定要結合孩子本身的特質和優(yōu)勢，來匹配，畢竟美高在孩子整個本科規(guī)劃中的作用是非常巨大的，也是孩子在高中期間不斷了解自己的過程，還有下一步就是孩子本科的專業(yè)賽道的確定，高中的課程設置及其課外活動，包括高年級的signature programs等等，是否都能為孩子的本科申請賦能，這些都是應該跟你的簽約顧問好好溝通的，畢竟美高不是割裂的，所以咱了解學校的過程中，還是那句話“專業(yè)的人做專業(yè)的事兒”，顧問老師對于院校的了解及其那么多年的申請錄取案例都是很好的參照，可以針對您家孩子的情況做縱向和橫向的比對，這樣就不難得出答案了，總之，大的原則還是“適合的才是最好的”，希望以上解答能夠對你有所幫助，祝順利！

It is important to do independent research on each school and consider the best-fit scenario for your child considering your major factors. Deciphering opinions on school search sites will result in a variety of answers. As it relates to Math courses, Mr. Rao could not be more wrong. Only Phillips Exeter Academy has a few higher math offerings. We offer higher than Andover, and easily more than all other NE boarding schools and every private prep school in the NYC area. We currently have 60+ students now beyond AP Calculus BC. We offer College-Level Multivariable Calculus and College-Level Linear Algebra (both of which are accredited through SBU'S ACE program for dual enrollment). We also offer Advanced Mathematical Logic and, Advanced Topics in Mathematics. We have increasingly seen students specifically choose to come to SBS for our math curriculum, as we are confident in saying our math course offerings are currently among the best in the country. Advanced Topics in Mathematics originated due to students completing our math sequence, especially possible now due to summer courses through our Gravitas program. The course is co-taught by our Math Department Chair, who is also now an adjunct professor at SBU at their math chair's request, and a new faculty member who holds a PhD in rocket science and has taught mathematics and physics at the college level for many years. The course is designed to be flexible to student research and interests. As a capstone project, students will do a research project and defend their research in a "thesis defense" style forum in May, alongside our Advanced Scientific Research students (a similar new course to facilitate research in science - we have had multiple students with internships at Brookhaven National Labs and Cold Spring Harbor Labs over the past several years and this course is designed to support that initiative) and Advanced Engineering, Innovation, and Design students from the STEM department. Our students are performing at a higher level than most college juniors and seniors our teachers have taught at the university level. Here is the course description: N.170/ Advanced Topics in Mathematics Prerequisite: Linear Algebra or Multivariable Calculus and instructor’s recommendation . This course is a rigorous, college-level math course for high-achieving students of mathematics. Topics such as combinatorics, probability, real analysis, complex analysis, advanced calculus and number theory will be covered to expose students to a variety of advanced subjects.
