After Math Circles, I went into UBC and majored in Computer Science. I think that Math Circles gave me the ability to problem solve and think logically unlike most high school students, as we covered topics (e.g. geometry, proofs, more advanced algebra) that was not covered in the regular high school curriculum. I’m currently a software engineer in downtown Vancouver, so I’d say that my strong background in math really helped me get to where I am today.
