How good is IE IRODOV for physics olympiad

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

IE IRODOV is a problem book utilized by students preparing for the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO). While it provides a solid foundation, its difficulty level is generally below that of actual IPhO problems. A Gold Winner of the Asian Physics Olympiad suggests that while IRODOV is useful, students should consider additional resources to adequately prepare for IPhO. Engaging with the Art of Problem Solving Community can also provide valuable insights and support.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with problem-solving techniques in physics
  • Understanding of the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) format and requirements
  • Basic knowledge of advanced physics concepts covered in competitive exams
  • Access to additional problem-solving resources, such as the Art of Problem Solving community
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore additional problem books that align more closely with IPhO standards
  • Join the Art of Problem Solving Community for peer support and resources
  • Review past IPhO problems to gauge the level of difficulty
  • Consider supplementary materials or courses focused on advanced physics problem-solving
USEFUL FOR

Students preparing for the International Physics Olympiad, educators seeking resources for competitive physics training, and anyone interested in enhancing their problem-solving skills in physics.

Iam currently preparing for physics olympiad 2014 and i am using IE IRODOV as a problem book. i want to know whether its enough for ipho or should i buy some other book.i have solved about 150 problems from IE IRODOV.

I went to IPhO and I've never heard of that book. Whatever you're doing is probably fine. You have time.
 
I am also a Gold Winner of Asian Physics Olympiad last year and this year going to take IPhO. Irodov is a Russian Book having main focus on Problems. (All russian prob. books are free at mirtitles.org) The Level of book is quite below the IPhO Probs so students do that book. Come on Art of Problem Solving Community Page there a lot person preparing for that.
