  your usual pattern\n\n33 High School Students\, 9 Accepted to Harvard\n– 
 A New Model of Success in the Age of AI\nWhen AI can now solve IMO-level p
 roblems in minutes—problems that once took even the brightest minds days t
 o crack\; when top students from the U.S. Math Olympiad Program are unexpe
 ctedly rejected by MIT in early admissions—some of the most trusted “paths
  to success” are quietly breaking down.\nAgainst this backdrop\, one pheno
 menon stands out:\nIn 2026\, 9 out of 33 high school students closely obse
 rved over time by Prof. Po-Shen Loh\, former national coach of the U.S. Ma
 th Olympiad team\, were admitted to Harvard. Notably\, these weren’t typic
 al “international competition winners.” The question is: What led Harvard 
 to choose them?\nIn this session\, Prof. Loh challenges what “success” rea
 lly means today by asking these questions:\n· Why are top universities loo
 king beyond grades?· What qualities are they really looking for in student
 s? · How can students\, from elementary through high school\, build skills
  that actually shape your future?· What choices can parents make now that 
 will shape their children’s future over the next decade?\n💡 You’ll learn:\
 nHow this group of students\, whom Prof. Loh has closely mentored and obse
 rved over time\, grew by building strong communication\, critical thinking
 \, character\, and empathy—and how\, by focusing on growth rather than adm
 issions\, they went on to earn recognition from top universities around th
 e world.\n😎 Who Should Attend:\nParents who want to prepare their kids for
  success\nTeachers and Administration looking for powerful strategies to a
 dopt in education\nStudents debating future careers\nCommunity leaders foc
 used on developing opportunity\nAnyone curious about how AI\, education\, 
 and the job market will shape the next 20 years\n\nSpeaker Info\nThe speak
 er\, Po-Shen Loh\, has traveled to over 100 cities in recent years\, deliv
 ering talks on this topic and gaining insights from diverse audiences—a to
 ur that was even featured by The Wall Street Journal.\nPo-Shen Loh is a so
 cial entrepreneur and inventor working across mathematics\, education\, an
 d healthcare. He is a math professor at Carnegie Mellon University and the
  national coach of the USA International Mathematical Olympiad team. He ha
 s pioneered innovations ranging from a scalable way for people to learn ch
 allenging math live online from brilliant people to a new way to control p
 andemics by leveraging self-interest.\nHe has earned distinctions ranging 
 from an International Mathematical Olympiad silver medal to the USA Presid
 ential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers. He was the coach o
 f Carnegie Mellon University’s math team when it achieved its first-ever 1
  rank among all North American universities\, and the coach of the USA Mat
 h Olympiad team when it achieved its first-ever back-to-back 1-rank victor
 ies in 2015 and 2016\, and then again in 2018 and 2019. He featured in or 
 co-created videos totaling over 21 million YouTube views.\nPo-Shen receive
 d his undergraduate degree in mathematics from Caltech in 2004\, graduatin
 g with the highest GPA in his class. He received a master’s degree in math
 ematics from the University of Cambridge in 2005\, where he was supported 
 by a Winston Churchill Foundation Scholarship. He continued his studies at
  Princeton\, supported by a Hertz Foundation Fellowship and a National Sci
 ence Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship\, where he completed his Ph.D
 . in mathematics at the end of 2009\, and has been on the faculty at Carne
 gie Mellon University ever since.\n\nAcknowledgment\nMost of Prof. Loh's p
 ublic outreach\, including this event\, is sponsored by LIVE by Po-Shen Lo
 h. Special appreciation goes to CALex (莱克星顿华裔联盟) for its longstanding supp
 ort\, and to Ms. Hong Zeng\, Edison\, and others for their assistance with
  venue coordination.
