    video ends when the best information begins, good job! Point being is that you need a mentor to reach this level. Good luck finding one.

    Not just a mentor, but from a young age having a community of people enthusiastic about mathematics!

    Not true. I have never had a mentor and I begun studying around 1.5 years ago for the National Math Olympiad competition in Brazil and I got gold this year. However, I did study extremely hard, am very passionate for maths and have some level of talent with the subject. But it can absolutely be done, and I did it all alone! Next year I’m going to try to ace the National Qualifiers that allow you to enter the selection process for IMO and other international competitions.

    This mentality is actually what holds back most people

    @@filipeoliveira7001 Yeah, totally agree, although it can be helpful, it's only one of the many things you can do to learn it. Personally for me, just using Art of Problem Solving website and training lectures, with various other resources let me place highly in my national math competition. For Chemistry, I used College Textbooks and Past Papers, with free training from my country, which led me to go to IChO, so it's definitely possible.
