Looking for Physics or USAPhO Tutor
physicsplease   0
3 hours ago
Hii I am looking for a USAPhO tutor for next year's season. I think I have tried literally everything possible to improve but I feel like I just hit a massive roadblock right now.

It would be ideal if I can find someone who have a lot of experience with physics olympiads. My goal is medal/gold in usapho next year, and I am very determined & willing to put in a lot of hours, especially more so in the summer. Please recommend anyone or dm in aops, thank you.

Have qualified usapho before (last year), took both physics c and sufficient higher math.

SMT Online 2025 Waiver
techb   12
N 3 hours ago by techb
I registered as an individual as an early bird. I'm sure some of you guys who are taking this exam too, have received an email containing logistics. In that, there is the Google doc "Your Guide to SMT 2025 Online". I have a question. There is the whole section about waivers, which I have to fill out before competing. According to the doc: "Students will not be permitted to compete if they do not have a completed waiver by the start of the competition.". My question is what are these waivers for, as I have not applied for financial aid. My parents hasn't received any email about the waivers. "Please allow a day for waivers to be sent to parents and for waiver completion to be reflected on the student dashboard." I also don't have any waiver completion notification on my comp.mt(student dashboard).

Please respond fast.

Quadrilateral $ABCD$ satisfies $\angle ABC = \angle ACD = 90^{\circ}, AC = 20$, and $CD = 30$. Diagonals $\overline{AC}$ and $\overline{BD}$ intersect at point $E$, and $AE = 5$. What is the area of quadrilateral $ABCD$?
