"IT WAS SOOO FUN!!!!!!"

"I loved this program so much! It totally exceeded my expectations and I made new friends who also enjoy math as much as I do."

"The thing I loved most about this program was not only getting to learn a little more about math but also getting to connect with other students and professors."

"I liked learning mathematics that can be applied in real world jobs. Learning a fresh topic everyday was refreshing since school math classes can stick to one topic for up to a week. I loved the treasure hunt, recommendation systems, getting to know the other kids, and lunch in the UC."

"The highlight of this program for me was the sisterhood in the group and gaining exposure to how life in college will be."

“Thank you to all the very sweet and generous staff that helped make this one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had this summer.”

“I really thought the way that Profs. Hyejin Kim, Aditya Viswanathan and Yulia Hristova all taught the lectures with such enthusiasm that allowed me to be interested in Math. The Matlab questions were a great way to apply my knowledge from the lectures and strengthen my understanding. The Professors were great at explaining and I really enjoyed the experience!”

“I am very happy that this program exists to provide the opportunity for young women to explore their interest in math.”

“The highlight was meeting new people and allowing myself to become more educated about math in a very nice way. I learned things in this math program in ways that helped me understand and look forward to the next day in the program.”

“I felt that the panel really went in depth to discuss their lives and give out suggestions.” 

“[The panel] allowed me to get a better vision of what the future has in store for me”. 

"I really liked being able to use matlab for the labs since it allowed us to do some really cool things and kept everything very organized. The labs were very well guided and allowed for us to think and apply what we learned without getting stuck or frustrated, which I really appreciated. They gave me a lot of confidence when I would hit the run section button and see a matrix or graph pop up that I was trying to create, because I was able to actually complete the problem successfully."

"It was really fun getting to work through the lecture with a partner and sort of applying what we learned in a cool way."

"The biggest highlight of GGM for me has to be the instructors though. I really appreciated their ability to explain complex topics in a way that was engaging and understandable. "

"This opened my eyes to math/engineering, because it's never really been shown to me as a serious career. Hopefully I can learn more and might actually be interested in pursuing this field!"

"This program was definitely very valuable to me and will have an impact on my future."
