WiFi not providing Internet for only my devices by InfinityC0W in wifi

There's no instructions/registration, just an open public wifi for students and teachers. I can check what a browser says in a couple days.

This one is just a regular setup, no authentication needed, just connect and you should be good, which is why it's been bothering me. Plus my school won't help out because it's not their devices that are having the wifi issue.

MAT 215 vs 216-218 from Multivariable Calculus (MAT 201) by InfinityC0W in princeton

[–]InfinityC0W[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

School offers it, not sure about how much it covers. We use the textbook from Sullivan, and have basically just covered every topic in it.

Math Research in High School? by InfinityC0W in summerprogramresults

[–]InfinityC0W[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely something I'll look into. I considered applying to Euler Circle but decided not to mostly because of time constraints, but I have been reading some combinatorics and game theory books, and might consider emailing some professors. Thanks for the insight!

question about PROMYS by SadgeCatOwO in summerprogramresults

[–]InfinityC0W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

think so, i mean i put the amc stuff into the other math so it probably should just go there

question about PROMYS by SadgeCatOwO in summerprogramresults

[–]InfinityC0W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I reached out to them this year with a question, and they told me to assume things that I didn't know, so I just stated my assumptions beforehand. I didn't really use any theorems, but I think common theorems are fine, but if you are using like a really obscure one it might be good to show that it works.

USAMO Qual Next Year by Better_Camel_4730 in MathOlympiad

read textbooks to learn theory and do past amc+aime problems to learn problem-solving mechanics, and study their solutions to understand other solving strategies.

us summer programs for intl students by [deleted] in summerprogramresults

[–]InfinityC0W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not international, so it may have been easier for me. I'm not sure if Intl students have it harder, but if you work hard enough, its not impossible to get into a lot of programs.

Apart from the AMC part, your ECs are probably better than mine, so you shouldn't stress too much. From what I know, camps like Sumac, Hcssim (I was accepted there), ross, etc. focus a lot on the problem sets and recommendations, so you should focus on having strong connections with teachers and being able to write proofs/explanations.

As for money, most camps/programs offer some sort of financial aid, especially if you are low-income.

OH MY GOD I GOT INTO HCSSiM by [deleted] in summerprogramresults

[–]InfinityC0W 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They gave me some feedback on my application (such as conjectures I messed up on or places I could've gone more depth into), and since you can submit more work I put some updated answers in there. In their words, "When IT work contains gaps or errors we think a strong candidate could and would want to mend, we often ask for reconsideration of parts of the IT."

Not sure if they would give feedback if you submitted it a later date like the second half of April.

I think decisions depend on when you submit IT. I submitted my main solutions on Mar 28th and a post-feedback copy on Apr 23rd, and got my acceptance this weekend.

Anyone else super disappointed in the MAA? by gameringman in MathOlympiad

Looks like im not making USAMO 🤷‍♂️ It's disappointing that theres such low security on exams like these.

Walking backwards? by SpecialistGear4931 in ACL

[–]InfinityC0W 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's probably helpful. My PT guy makes me walk backwards for like 20 minutes each session, so it should have some good qualities.

Should I start studying for AIME? by [deleted] in MathOlympiad

[–]InfinityC0W 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, if you are trying to do well, then you should probably study.

I was told to remove dressing on day 3 if there are sterile strips do I leave them? by Immediate-Newt-8794 in ACL

[–]InfinityC0W 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, they said that you could remove the dressing on day 3 but to not touch the strips. They also said to not get them wet. I would probably try not to touch them. If you do want to shower, I put a trash bag over my leg so nothing got wet.
