This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

  • Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
  • Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
  • Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
  • Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

@David Lee And got 9 on AIME 1 to make JMO... if you took this AIME, you could get 6+, you have 3 hours so you have like no time pressure.. :) and you can do it at home using AoPS (see your message board)

David Lee - 7 years, 1 month ago

Funny thing is I'm the only one from my school who made JMO this year. Those huge cutoffs are killer.
