lol.
Why does it matter so much to you where a single person goes?
I can ask him next time I talk to him, though, if you want.

Well, I know who Ajai Sharma is... dunno where he's going, though.

I don't who he is personally, but check the EXETER BULLETIN for Tiankai Liu's exploits, on-line at:

"The Exeter Olympic Team"

[Tony Zhang ’04, Tiankai Liu ’04 and Matthew Tang ’03 are competing with the top math students in the country to represent the United States at the International Mathematical Olympiad, to be held this month in Tokyo. Helping coach the U.S. team will be PEA math instructor Zuming Feng. When it comes to math, the Exeter bench is deep—very deep.]

[Three Academy students—Tiankai Liu ’04 of Saratoga, CA; Matthew Tang ’03 of Hong Kong; and Tony Zhang ’04 of Houston, TX—were among the top 12 scorers in the nation on the USA Mathematical Olympiad (USAMO) exam, a grueling, two-day test held this spring. Later this month, the best of that select group will travel to Japan to compete in the 44th International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), which draws math students from more than 80 nations.]

[Tiankai Liu, who had a perfect score and a first-place finish in this year’s USAMO exam, is likely to be on that flight to Tokyo. “It is thrilling to solve problems and it’s thrilling to be stuck on them,” says Liu. “It’s even more thrilling to meet other people. Having been to two IMO’s, I know what an exciting experience it is to be able to meet students from so many different countries.”]

seriously... this guy must be a quasi genius

Oh no. He's a full-blown genius. Quite a guy :)

Olympiad stars generally have lots of great options. Plus, financial aid offers may be important even to the people who get in everywhere, and those are still pending for a lot of colleges. That must make it very difficult to decide, and the decision date is still a month off.

He's going to Harvard. He applied early and got in (I know because I go to the high school).
