We are halfway through summer, so be sure to carve out some time to keep your skills sharp and explore challenging topics at AoPS Online and our AoPS Academies (including the Virtual Campus)!
[list][*]Over 60 summer classes are starting at the Virtual Campus on July 7th - check out the math and language arts options for middle through high school levels.
[*]At AoPS Online, we have accelerated sections where you can complete a course in half the time by meeting twice/week instead of once/week, starting on July 8th:
[list][*]MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Basics
[*]MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Advanced
[*]AMC Problem Series[/list]
[*]Plus, AoPS Online has a special seminar July 14 - 17 that is outside the standard fare: Paradoxes and Infinity
[*]We are expanding our in-person AoPS Academy locations - are you looking for a strong community of problem solvers, exemplary instruction, and math and language arts options? Look to see if we have a location near you and enroll in summer camps or academic year classes today! New locations include campuses in California, Georgia, New York, Illinois, and Oregon and more coming soon![/list]

For any finite set , let denote the number of elements in Define where the sum is taken over all ordered pairs such that and are subsets of with For example, because the sum is taken over the pairs of subsets giving Let where and are relatively prime positive integers. Find the remainder when is divided by
Given non-empty subset of the set of positive integers, a positive integer is called good if for every prime factor of ,. For a positive real number , let denote the number of good numbers not exceeding .

Prove that for any real number , there exists a positive integer such that for any prime and any primitive root modulo , if we define the set where denotes the fractional part of the real number , then Created by Zhenyu Dong and Chunji Wang
Given a positive integer and a positive real number , prove that there exist infinitely many positive integers for which we can find pairwise coprime integers less than satisfying Proposed by Cheng Jiang from Tsinghua University
One class needs to choose n students to join a competition. The teacher hold n exams in order to choose n students. In each exam, there are no two students who have the same score. The teacher will hold one exam and pick the student whose score is the highest in that exam. Then, the teacher will hold another exam and pick the student whose score is the highest in this exam from the remaining students. In this way, the teacher will choose n students. Obviously, the order that the teacher hold the exams will affect the students will be chosen. So, how many students have the chance to be chosen at most?
For example, when n = 2 and in exam A, Alice is the first, Bob is the second, Tom is the third. In
exam B, Alice is the first, Tom is the second, Bob is the third. If the teacher choose exam A at first and then choose exam B, Alice and Tom will be chosen. If the teacher choose exam B at first and then choose exam A, Alice and Bob will be chosen. So Alice, Bob and Tom have the chance to be chosen.
If is a finite set, let denote the number of elements in . Call an ordered pair of subsets of if for each , and for each . How many admissible ordered pairs of subsets are there? Prove your answer.
I do not think that helps very much since similar problems RARELY show up again. However, I was wondering what theorems and ideas are important to know (of course one must also have a creative mind).
I do not think that helps very much since similar problems RARELY show up again.
Pretty much every inequality that uses a certain theorem or technique somewhere in the proof is similar.
Also look over the last 10 years and you'll see several problems that ask you to either create a set S that satisfies certain properties (98 #5) or prove that a set consists of all integers (04 #2, 01 #5). While different techniques are used in each case, truth is the general feel of a situation makes having the practice very useful.
Along similar lines, just about every functional equation uses the same certain techniques.
Ah, thanks! I just wanted to review somethings before I actually have to take it. Although 20 days may not seem like a lot of time, miracles can happen, and also studying wouldn't hurt
I work on AoPS book, especially on the chapters about proof, since i don't know anything about proof.
BTW, Whats the most frequent topic that appears in USAMO? Geometry or algebra?
42 points possible for the USAMO. To get on the US IMO team there is a Team Selection Test (TST) at MOP for that. The score depends on how everyone does on that. But basically you have to be top 6 to compete at the IMO and #7 is the alternate.
