Alcumus vs books
UnbeatableJJ   5
N 34 minutes ago by Andyluo
If I am aiming for AIME, then JMO afterwards, is Alcumus adequate, or I still need to do the problems on AoPS books?

I got AMC 23 this year, and never took amc 10 before. If I master the alcumus of intermediate algebra (making all of the bars blue). How likely I can qualify for AIME 2026?

We are excited to announce that registration is now open for Stanford Math Tournament (SMT) 2025!

This year, we will welcome 800 competitors from across the nation to participate in person on Stanford’s campus. The tournament will be held April 11-12, 2025, and registration is open to all high-school students from the United States. This year, we are extending registration to high school teams (strongly preferred), established local mathematical organizations, and individuals; please refer to our website for specific policies. Whether you’re an experienced math wizard, a puzzle hunt enthusiast, or someone looking to meet new friends, SMT has something to offer everyone!

Register here today! We’ll be accepting applications until March 2, 2025.

For those unable to travel, in middle school, or not from the United States, we encourage you to instead register for SMT 2025 Online, which will be held on April 13, 2025. Registration for SMT 2025 Online will open mid-February.

I believe discussion is allowed after yesterday at midnight, correct?
If so, I will put tentative answers on this thread.
By the way, does anyone know the answer to Geometry Problem 5? I was wondering if I got that one right
Also, if you put answers, please put it in a hide tag
