Looking for summer camps in math and language arts? Be sure to check out the video-based summer camps offered at the Virtual Campus that are 2- to 4-weeks in duration. There are middle and high school competition math camps as well as Math Beasts camps that review key topics coupled with fun explorations covering areas such as graph theory (Math Beasts Camp 6), cryptography (Math Beasts Camp 7-8), and topology (Math Beasts Camp 8-9)!

Every day, I will try to post a new problem for you all to solve! If you want to post a daily problem, you can! :)
Please hide solutions and answers, hints are fine though! :)
Problems usually get harder throughout the week, so Sunday is the easiest and Saturday is the hardest!

For those asking about the removal of the tiers, I'd like to quote Jason himself:

Help contribute by sharing your state's cutoffs!
Note that this is in no way trying to slander people who qualified through states with lower cutoffs. It is to compare cutoffs from 2022-2025. Qualifying nationals in any state is an exceptional achievement.

How to get good at comp math
fossasor 24
I'm a rising ninth grader who wasn't in the school math league this year, and basically put aside comp math for a year. Unfortunately, that means that now that I'm in high school and having the epiphany about how important comp math actually is, and how much it would help my chances of getting involved in other math-related programs. In addition, I do enjoy math in general, and suspect that things like the AMCs are probably going to be some of the best practice I can get. What this all means is that I'm trying to go from mediocre to orz, 2 years after I probably should have started if I wanted to be any good.
So my question is: how do I get good at comp math?
This year, my scores on AMC 10 (and these are the highest I've ever gotten) were a 73.5 and an 82.5 (AMC 8 was 21/25, but that doesn't matter much). This is not good enough to qualify for AIME, and I probably need to raise my performance on each by at least 10 points. I've been decently good in the past at Number Theory, but I need to work on Geo and Combinatorics, and I'm trying to find the best resources to do that. My biggest flaw is probably not knowing many algorithms like Stars and Bars, and the path is clear here (learn them) but I'm still not sure which ones I need to know.
I'm aware that some of this advice is going to be something like "Practice 5 hours a day and start hardgrinding" or something along those lines. Unfortunately, I have other extracurriculars I need to balance, and for me, time is a limiting resource. My parents are somewhat frowning upon me doing a lot of comp math, which limits my time as well. I have neither the time nor motivation to do more than an hour a day, and in practice, I don't think I can be doing that consistently. As such, I would need to make that time count.
I know this is a very general question, and that aops is chock-full of detailed advice for math competitions. However, I'd appreciate it if anyone here could help me out, or show me the best resources I should use to get started. What mocks are any good, or what textbooks should I use? Where do I get the best practice with the shortest time? Is there some place I can find a list of useful formulas that have appeared in math comps before?
All advice is welcome!

Next Steps for AIME
GeniusGiraffe 0
Hi everyone,
I am a freshmen who got a 181 index this year, with a 111 on AMC 10 and a 7 on AIME.
Now that I have around 6 months to prepare before AMC 10, what should I do to prepare? I am pretty sure I can get >130 on AMC 10 right now.
My goal is to make USA(J)MO next year and do decent on it.

9 RSM or AoPS?
BlazingSun1200 69
I'm doing RSM right now, but I want to switch over to AoPS. I'm just curious to know, which do you prefer? (If you have no experience with both, please don't vote!)
If you want, please drop some advice on the Intermediate Algebra class, because that's the one I'm hoping to take!

Picking a College
missionsqhc 1
I applied to college as a math major, and my options are Georgetown, UVA, Stony Brook, and Binghamton. I was waitlisted from CMU, Columbia, Northwestern, Berkeley, Williams, UNC, and UMich.
I’ve done competition math throughout middle school and high school and obviously am currently slotted to study math. But I am also very much interested in politics, government, history, etc. I could easily see myself double majoring or even completely switching to something like political science or history. I don’t have a clear-cut vision for a future career. I used to really want to become a mathematician, but now I think it’s more likely that I’ll do something more “practical,” like finance or law. I also have aspirations of working in government, even possibly running for elected office.
If someone has gone to one of the school’s I’ve been accepted by or has experience in one of the careers I’ve mentioned (or possesses some other characteristics that gives insight into my situation), I would greatly appreciate your thoughts. On one hand, I really like Georgetown because of its strong programs in government, international relations, and other social sciences; its DC location; and its stated goal (which I hope is genuine) or educating students for life and not just work. But the hard sciences, and particularly math, are relatively smaller programs and less of the school’s emphasis. I worry that I may end up sticking mainly with math and would have been better off picking something like UVA or even Stony or Bing.
A related question I have regards how the undergraduate math departments compare at different schools. I wouldn't be surprised if the very top-tier places, like MIT, Caltech, CMU, Harvard, Stanford, and Princeton, were significantly stronger than Georgetown. But how does Georgetown compare to places that are good for math but not necessarily hyper-elite, like a Cornell or a UMich?
Also, Georgetown has a 3 + 2 program with Columbia Engineering, in which you study for three years at Georgetown to get a BA/BS in any major in any school (but preferably in math/science) and then study for two years at Columbia to get a BS in their engineering school. This seems like a way to get the best of both worlds between humanities and STEM (and to gain connections in both DC and NYC). If anyone has done this, please do share your experience.

Introducing myself at AoPS, and what's your magic wand?
asuth_asuth 877
Hi!
I'm Andrew Sutherland. I'm the new Chief Product Officer at AoPS. As you may have read, Richard is retiring and Ben Kornell and I are working together to lead the company now. I'm leading all the software and digital stuff at AoPS. I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself! I'm really excited to be part of the special community that is AoPS.
Previously, I founded Quizlet as a 15-year-old high school student. I did Course 6 at MIT and then left to lead Quizlet full-time for a total of 14 years. I took a few years off and now I'm doing AoPS! I wrote more about all that on my blog: https://asuth.com/im-joining-aops
I have a question for all of you. If you could wave a magic wand, and change anything about AoPS, what would it be? All suggestions welcome! Thank you.
