important tidbit of information : If you can't solve a problem, find the solution, add it to your strategy, rinse and repeat until you find so many different approaches that you can simply solve everything (about that one problem probably)
Fun fact: Chinese team at least get 4 golds in every IMO yet most gold a participant from Chinese has achieved is 2. This is because they dont get multiple years to join this event. If they do, all those name in hall of fame will be full of chinese names.
But isn't there 20 age limit. Most of them are 19 year olds how can they compete again ,seems like they focus on 100% and not to mention university student can't compete too
Isn't it also because they choose those with the highest chance to score a perfect ? So unless one is an absolute machine, China is so huge there's always someone younger, more hungry, better.

I know absolutely nothing about mathematics, legit don't even get what he's talking about. Best thing I can do is calculate nuclear decay but that's about as far as it'll go.
I think what people mean by get better at problem solving is usually get better at solving a kind of problems. There are general technics like trying to simplify the problem, but usually you train for something specific. Probably IMO students just look good at problem solving in general because they have trained a wide range of areas and are so high level in some that they can apply this knowledge into other areas.
people like him makes me realise I'm not meant for engineering and maths. But I'm not chad enough to do sales or marketing. Maybe biology could be a good option? idk
None w/in the real mathematicians' community knows or cares about this guy Von , & nor did any of the '22 fields medallists ever participate in any olympiad .. so just carry on w the subject
@@rubbersidedown7992 woah had no idea that they didn't participate in olympiads but can that be interpreted as that they knew olympiads were easy for them? 😭
@@mango-strawberry thats not the case ... read blogs by Terence Tao & others Olympiad = practise + learning tricks + luck ....., Research is a diff ballgame.. So just eat ur mangoes & keep learning advanced maths
I've never been in any olympiads or anything, but what I do is I just play around with a system, and by doing that, a lot of the time questions arise naturally. I would probably do that for general problems, but of course also the Art of Problem Solving is nice for preparation
No idea why the obsession with idolizing people who literally only seem to be good at sitting IMO exams These individuals do literally nothing to advance mathematics in any meaningful way and instead just treat it as some kind of trivial exercise in self-indulgent eristics. The Greeks would be appalled.
I suggest you read a paper by Gaule and Agarwal that goes over this exact topic, establishing correlation between IMO scores and future contributions to mathematics. To quote one of the remarks, "Strong performers at the IMO have a disproportionate ability to produce frontier mathematical knowledge compared to PhD graduates and even PhD graduates from elite schools".
It certainly feels wrong to idolize these KIDS. There is no association between sitting in exams and your mathematical expertise. People might spite you with evidences of success of these people. However, the mathematics is not the inherent reason for their success. It's their own cultivated ability in heuristic arts of niche maths. These exams are attempts to nurture the virtue of cultivated abilities, that is acquired through years of hardwork. Those abilities are useful in any field of studies they might pursue. It doesn't even necessarily need to be mathematical. What Greek would find appalling is the civilizations that were sprouted from them are not performing in those virtues.
Not just great math advice but also life advice
Right pro

pfft
you can sum it up in two words: memorize solutions😂😂😂
@@jensonphan I agree, the neuroplasticity that happens when solve yourself doesn't happen when you read the solution, its just memorization.

That's true, check my video: china's secret, where I ask them this question
@@MathWisdom42 the one interview you had with the deputy leader, right? I just saw that one too.
Amazing videos btw.
But isn't there 20 age limit. Most of them are 19 year olds how can they compete again ,seems like they focus on 100% and not to mention university student can't compete too
@@ciiccci check their latest perfect scorer on IMO'24. He is still 16! And already got 2 gold medals, both with perfect scores!
Isn't it also because they choose those with the highest chance to score a perfect ? So unless one is an absolute machine, China is so huge there's always someone younger, more hungry, better.

Super, Math Wisdom!
maths and china ofcourse
he is better looking in this video than in fb picture
Great work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You should talk about gennady korotkevich ! He is the undeniable greatest in informatics olympiads

Bro where is your third video
Bro where is your next video
pretty soon
Can you pleasse tell from which movie, the clip at 4:27 is ??
it is not a movie, it is a short clip prepared by the UK for IMO 2024.
nice video!
I'll give you a better tip : born smart then everything gonna be alright
The sad truth💔 but it's ok with determination and hard work we can achieve anything
dumbass, you tryinna to demotivate everyone cuz u can't lol

I don't understand this about problem solving in math. Every problem has its own way to solve then how do you get better at solving unseen problems?
check our last video "how to think like a genius", you will find the answer ;)

Do you have anything to back up your contentions or are you just talking out of your a$$ ?
What is wrong with enjoying problem solving? Cope harder.

@@PeerlescarYour second sentence is nonsense . Those who score well in these exams absolutely have mathematical expertise.
