Our Calculus Course

21 girls joined us for a one week calculus intensive. The course also included computer science activities and an astronomy and planetary science lecture.

In only 5 days, the girls learned most of the material covered in a semester-long calculus course. At the end of the week, they completed a calculus test, and 2 girls obtained a perfect score. We asked a few graduate students (currently working towards their PhDs in STEM fields) to take the same test and their average scores were 85. Six of the girls from the summer program beat the graduate students' mean score.
