k a August Highlights and 2025 AoPS Online Class Information
jwelsh   0
CONGRATULATIONS to all the competitors at this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO)! The US Team took second place with 5 gold medals and 1 silver - we are proud to say that each member of the 2025 IMO team has participated in an AoPS WOOT (Worldwide Online Olympiad Training) class!

"As a parent, I'm deeply grateful to AoPS. Tiger has taken very few math courses outside of AoPS, except for a local Math Circle that doesn't focus on Olympiad math. AoPS has been one of the most important resources in his journey. Without AoPS, Tiger wouldn't be where he is today — especially considering he's grown up in a family with no STEM background at all."
— Doreen Dai, parent of IMO US Team Member Tiger Zhang

There is still time to enroll in our last wave of summer camps that start in August at the Virtual Campus, our video-based platform, for math and language arts! From Math Beasts Camp 6 (Prealgebra Prep) to AMC 10/12 Prep, you can find an informative 2-week camp before school starts. Plus, our math camps don’t have homework and cover cool enrichment topics like graph theory. Our language arts courses will build the foundation for next year’s challenges, such as Language Arts Triathlon for levels 5-6 and Academic Essay Writing for high school students.

Lastly, Fall is right around the corner! You can plan your Fall schedule now with classes at either AoPS Online, AoPS Academy Virtual Campus, or one of our AoPS Academies around the US. We’ve opened new Academy locations in San Mateo, CA, Pasadena, CA, Saratoga, CA, Johns Creek, GA, Northbrook, IL, and Upper West Side (NYC), New York.

The MEOW (formerly called AoPSMO)

[center]Important Updates regarding the MEOW[/center]

Dear all,

We’re excited to share a few important updates regarding our upcoming mock contest.

Name and Logo Change:

Due to moderation concerns, we have officially changed the contest name from AoPSMO to
Mathematical Experience of Olympiad Whiz Kids (MEOW).

Along with this, we’ve adopted a new logo to represent the contest:
IMAGE
Mathematical Experience of Olympiad Whiz Kids

Thank you to everyone who supported us — we’re making this transition to ensure everything stays in line with AoPS guidelines and remains community-friendly.

Contest Delayed by one Week:

To accommodate these changes and finalize logistics, the contest is being delayed by one week.

- New problem release date: 8/9 ~ 8/11 (I'm not exactly sure yet but I believe this is it)
- Submission deadlines and leaderboard updates will be adjusted accordingly
- The format remains the same: 6 proof-style problems over 2 days

What You Need To Do:

- If you’ve already signed up, you’re still in! No need to sign up again.
- If you haven’t yet, post "/signup <your name>" below to participate.

Thank you for your patience and enthusiasm. We look forward to seeing you all at MEOW!

easiest/hardest AMC contests
scthecool   19
Which AMC 8/10/12, AIME, USA(J)MO contests are considered very easy or very hard (for example, if you think 2022 AMC 10B was very difficult, you could write that as your answer)? Explanations aren't required, but you could give them if you would like to.

(I'm just doing this "questionnaire" for fun)

k a August Highlights and 2025 AoPS Online Class Information
jwelsh   0
CONGRATULATIONS to all the competitors at this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO)! The US Team took second place with 5 gold medals and 1 silver - we are proud to say that each member of the 2025 IMO team has participated in an AoPS WOOT (Worldwide Online Olympiad Training) class!

"As a parent, I'm deeply grateful to AoPS. Tiger has taken very few math courses outside of AoPS, except for a local Math Circle that doesn't focus on Olympiad math. AoPS has been one of the most important resources in his journey. Without AoPS, Tiger wouldn't be where he is today — especially considering he's grown up in a family with no STEM background at all."
— Doreen Dai, parent of IMO US Team Member Tiger Zhang

There is still time to enroll in our last wave of summer camps that start in August at the Virtual Campus, our video-based platform, for math and language arts! From Math Beasts Camp 6 (Prealgebra Prep) to AMC 10/12 Prep, you can find an informative 2-week camp before school starts. Plus, our math camps don’t have homework and cover cool enrichment topics like graph theory. Our language arts courses will build the foundation for next year’s challenges, such as Language Arts Triathlon for levels 5-6 and Academic Essay Writing for high school students.

Lastly, Fall is right around the corner! You can plan your Fall schedule now with classes at either AoPS Online, AoPS Academy Virtual Campus, or one of our AoPS Academies around the US. We’ve opened new Academy locations in San Mateo, CA, Pasadena, CA, Saratoga, CA, Johns Creek, GA, Northbrook, IL, and Upper West Side (NYC), New York.

Our full course list for upcoming classes is below:
All classes run 7:30pm-8:45pm ET/4:30pm - 5:45pm PT unless otherwise noted.

For any positive integer $N$, let $S_N$ be the number of pairs of integers $1 \leq a, b \leq N$ such that the number $\left(a^2+a\right)\left(b^2+b\right)$ is a perfect square. Prove that the limit
$$
\lim _{N \rightarrow \infty} \frac{S_N}{N}
$$exists and find its value.

Minimum of Cyclic Sum
towersfreak2006   3
Let $0<p_1,p_2,\ldots,p_n<1$ with $p_1+p_2+\ldots+p_n=1$ and let $P=\prod_{i=1}^n(1-p_i)$.
Find the minimum of
\[P\left(\frac{p_1}{1-p_1}+\frac{p_2}{1-p_2}+\ldots+\frac{p_n}{1-p_n}\right).\]

k a August Highlights and 2025 AoPS Online Class Information
jwelsh   0
CONGRATULATIONS to all the competitors at this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO)! The US Team took second place with 5 gold medals and 1 silver - we are proud to say that each member of the 2025 IMO team has participated in an AoPS WOOT (Worldwide Online Olympiad Training) class!

"As a parent, I'm deeply grateful to AoPS. Tiger has taken very few math courses outside of AoPS, except for a local Math Circle that doesn't focus on Olympiad math. AoPS has been one of the most important resources in his journey. Without AoPS, Tiger wouldn't be where he is today — especially considering he's grown up in a family with no STEM background at all."
— Doreen Dai, parent of IMO US Team Member Tiger Zhang

There is still time to enroll in our last wave of summer camps that start in August at the Virtual Campus, our video-based platform, for math and language arts! From Math Beasts Camp 6 (Prealgebra Prep) to AMC 10/12 Prep, you can find an informative 2-week camp before school starts. Plus, our math camps don’t have homework and cover cool enrichment topics like graph theory. Our language arts courses will build the foundation for next year’s challenges, such as Language Arts Triathlon for levels 5-6 and Academic Essay Writing for high school students.

Lastly, Fall is right around the corner! You can plan your Fall schedule now with classes at either AoPS Online, AoPS Academy Virtual Campus, or one of our AoPS Academies around the US. We’ve opened new Academy locations in San Mateo, CA, Pasadena, CA, Saratoga, CA, Johns Creek, GA, Northbrook, IL, and Upper West Side (NYC), New York.

Our full course list for upcoming classes is below:
All classes run 7:30pm-8:45pm ET/4:30pm - 5:45pm PT unless otherwise noted.

k Maintenance
shaayonsamanta   13
Is AoPS on maintenance right now?

AoPS keeps telling me that there's an "error with connecting to the server" and that they'll "try again in ten seconds."

Also, sometimes when I refresh, AoPS refuses to load. I have to wait a couple of seconds before re-refreshing and getting the actual website.
