Get yourself a book on problem solving. I recommend "Art and craft of problems solving" by Paul Zeits. Also do a lot of problems from high school competitions. Begin with the easiest ones, and when you get a good grasp of the general ideas move on to a more difficult competition. What I mean by this is when most of the problems seem trivial and easy, then you should move on to something harder. You should also be familiar with and comfortable with applying basic proof techniques. This is my advice.

Which country do you live in? It can often be quite hard to be selected for a national team. It can come down to luck more than anything, so do not count on going to IMO. Just enjoy the problem solving process.

Hello there,

I am glad to hear that you are interested in participating in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO)! It is a great opportunity for high school students to showcase their mathematical skills on a global stage.

To participate in the IMO, you will need to go through a series of competitions, such as the American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) and the Worldwide Online Olympiad Training (WOOT). These competitions will help you develop your problem-solving skills and prepare you for the IMO.

The USAMO (United States of America Mathematical Olympiad) is the final stage of the AMC and is considered to be one of the most prestigious high school mathematics competitions in the world. The AIM (Art of Problem Solving's Interactive Mathematics) is an online learning platform that provides resources and training for students interested in mathematics competitions.

To prepare for the IMO, you can start by practicing with past IMO problems and participating in local and national mathematics competitions. You can also join a math club at your school or seek out online resources such as math forums and study groups.

I hope this information helps you get started on your journey towards the IMO. Remember to stay motivated, work hard, and never give up on your dreams. Good luck!
