5 Series

Contest Physics Study Group

Ended Sat, Apr 29, 2023

Hello all, and welcome to the Contest Physics study group! Physics is hugely applicable to all areas of study: it involves an appreciation of the natural world and its beauty, and it promotes the skills of critical thinking alongside problems solving. In practicing contest physics, we gain newfound insight regarding the world around us and develop crucial abilities important to any domain of study.

The primary focus of this series will be the PhysicsBowl, which is the premier physics contest that is accessible to anyone around the world. Members of the series can expect preparation directed towards this contest through detailed discussion and explanation of real practice problems.

Cheers, and hope to see you in one of our sessions!

AoPS: Counting and Probability Study Group

Ended Sun, Sep 4, 2022

Hello everyone!
Counting and probability are essential components of mathematics -- it is pretty much guaranteed to comprise significant amounts of any math contest! However, in my experience, it is rare to see an advanced and in-depth study of counting in curriculums. Herein lies the goal of this study group: to introduce everyone to the strategies of solving problems of this sort, and to develop the skills to apply these strategies in the unfamiliar situations we are sure to run into in any math contest.
Learners in this series can expect:
a) regular sessions beginning with content from the AoPS book and later delving much deeper into the fascinating world of math
b) real math contest questions thoroughly explained, with a focus on developing our problem solving skills when faced with a new problem
c) plenty of fun and interactive group problem solving sessions
d) question and answer periods -- dedicated times or at the end of sessions -- for individualized support

Feel free to send me a message if there are any questions or requests for content to be covered.
Thanks everyone, and cheers!

(AoPS + Physics) Vectors and Coordinate Geometry Study Group!

Ended Fri, May 6, 2022

Hello all! Geometry is a huge part of problem solving: not only serving as a staple in math contests but also very applicable in areas such as physics or engineering. The purpose of this series is to explore how the mathematics of vector and coordinate geometry are hugely important instruments in math and physics problems.

Those who are interested can expect fun and challenging problem-based sessions on vectors and coordinate geometry in 2D and 3D. Come prepared to dive deep into interesting (and sometimes rather challenging) questions and real-world applications!

This series would be a perfect fit for learners interested in math and how it serves as the essential tool belt of other fields of study.

Overview: (each section will be comprised of multiple sessions, and are subject to change based on learner feedback)
Section 1: [AoPS] Euclidean Geometry and the Cartesian Plane
Section 2: [Pre-Calc] Introductions to Vectors and Vector Operations
Section 3: [Physics] 2D Vector Interactions
Section 4: [AoPS] How to Deal With the Third Dimension

Cheers all and hope to see you in one of the sessions below!

AoPS: Introduction to Geometry + Further Geometry Exploration!

Ended Tue, Jan 4, 2022

Geometry is a huge part of problem solving: not only serving as a staple in math contests but also very applicable in areas such as physics or engineering. Join us for a series of problem-based sessions which covers content from the AoPS Geometry book -- and beyond!

Interested participants can expect fun and interactive weekly sessions focused on building skills for effective problem solving in geometry. The format will be short introductions to concepts, following by explorations of these ideas through fascinating (and sometimes very tricky) questions!

Overview: (each section will be comprised of multiple sessions, and are subject to change based on learner feedback)
Section 1: The Triangle
Section 2: Polygons
Section 3: The Circle

Counting and Probability Study Group!

Ended Thu, Aug 12, 2021

Hello Everyone! This will be a series which focuses on the AoPS book "Introduction to Counting and Probability". Sessions will be organized by topic, with each session starting with a simpler opening problem, then going over the tools to tackle more advanced problems. This means that different sessions should not range too much in difficulty -- rather each session with start off simple, then quickly become more and more challenging.

We will decide on a schedule as a group, and then sessions will be added.

AoPS Math

Sun Jul 18, 2021, 8:30 PM

Hey everyone! In this session, we'll delve into the more advanced areas of quadratics -- understanding of the very basics of quadratics will be expected. We'll complete the square, prove the quadratic formula, learn the degree-2 Vieta's formulas and put these to use to solve the most difficult of problems surrounding quadratics.
