      I enjoy mathematics a lot, particularly pure math. I've recently been fascinated by topics like "Infinity", "4th Dimension and Beyond". I've already applied to a few summer camps, such as SUMaC and the Ross Program. What else would you suggest for me to do to explore more of the topic?

        I have a really weird but important question. I currently go to an Early College High School and will be graduating from my high school with about 100 college credit hours. It is crucial for me to know if they will transfer before I apply to MIT.
