About

In this series, we will cover the Introduction to Counting and Probability book that AoPS provides. We will look at topics ranging from Counting to Combinations to the Binomial Theorem. These topics will be very useful in doing well in math contests such as Mathcounts, the AMC 8, and AMC 10/12.

Hi there! My name is Shitij and I'm a junior in High School. I have completed AP Calculus AB and BC as well as AP Statistics with a score of 5 in both. I have tutored, and am currently tutoring students in Algebra and PreAlgebra at my local non-profit for 2 years. I was also one of the earlier tutors here at schoolhouse.world. I have a youtube channel as well(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCinwpgQ9163mWYpAcL0jE0A) where I cover topics ranging from Calculus to Algebra. I also cover topics in Competitive Math Contests like the AMC and AIME as well as Computer Science Contests like USACO. I look forward to teaching you!
