About

Each week learners studying for the F=ma or USAPhO can ask questions on concepts, problems, or past exams that they are struggling with or are confusing. We will discuss techniques and concepts tested heavily on the F=ma and USAPhO but are not seen in courses such as AP Physics 1 and C. We can also provide resources and advice to assist in preparation for the F=ma and USAPhO. Although F=ma problems can often be done without using calculus, the F=ma tests conceptual understanding heavily, so it is useful to understand calculus based physics. USAPhO problems often require direct use of calculus.

View Profile

I am a high school student (junior) from New York. I am interested in Physics and have participated in the F=ma and USAPhO (National US Physics Olympiad). I've earned a silver medal on USAPhO and will continue to learn Physics, Computer Science, Chemistry, and Mathematics. I'm especially interested in topics such as Quantum Computing, Machine Learning, and the frontier of Theoretical Physics. I'm well versed in AP Physics 1 and Physics C courses. I am very active on the AoPS Physics Forum. In my free time, I like to play jazz piano and plan to minor in Jazz Performance in college. I attend a precollege program on Saturdays and played with the All-Eastern Jazz Ensemble this April.
