[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]hyper accelerated math doesnt move the needle much, now amc, usamo and aime do.[/quote] Those two things go hand in hand. The kid who going to represent his university at the Putnam competition was most likely both accelerated in math and did well on the AIME, etc. [/quote] most hyper accelerated kids aren't actually doing math competitions[/quote]But you can't do very well in math competitions without being hyper accelerated. The kids qualifying for MOP usually qualify for USAJMO in middle school, which is 5+ years of acceleration before you even consider the many extra years' worth of competition-specific math prep.[/quote] Competition math is a backwater.[/quote]
