Jacob Cohen was recognized at our last School Committee meeting for his outstanding achievement in math and science. An 800 on the SAT’s? WOW! I struggled to hit 800 combined English and Math! Great job Jacob.

Jacob scored a perfect 800 on his SAT’s in Mathematics

Reasons for Recognition:

Jacob presently takes AP Calculus, AP Physics, AP Biology, and AP English Literature. He is in the top 4% of his class with a 4.03 GPA and is ranked 18th out of 453.

Last year Jacob was one of two juniors who excelled in the UMASS Lowell Teams Academy Program. At Teams Jacob was in class with some of the top science and mathematics students in the Merrimack Valley while completing four rigourous interdisciplinary math, science, and engineering-technology courses as he was bused to UMASS Lowell each day from MHS. Jacob will be applying to Penn State, Cornell, WPI, and RPI. He plans on majoring in Nuclear Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or Biomedical Engineering. Although these majors are physics focused, Jake claims that math is his favorite subject because it is easy for him and the key component in all of his courses. Jacob has been described as not only very studious but also a very respectful young man who is always willing to lend a helping hand. He leads through his quiet confidence and with his responsible character.
