Listen carefully. This is a non-negotiable accelerated plan using AoPS: finish Prealgebra fast, begin Introduction to Algebra immediately, and study Introduction to Geometry alongside both. Use the Prealgebra, Intro to Algebra, and Intro to Geometry texts, Alcumus practice, and AoPS video lectures without fail.

  • Cadence: 6 days/week, 10–12 hours/week. Daily: 45–60 min reading + 75–90 min problem work (book problems + Alcumus).
  • Weeks 1–8: Finish Prealgebra — complete each section’s problems before reading solutions; log mistakes; review solution manual.
  • Week 9 onward: Start Intro to Algebra; continue 1 geometry section/week from Introduction to Geometry (proofs, similars, circles).
  • Weekly: 1 timed 30–45 min test (mixed topics), 30 Alcumus problems with 80%+ accuracy, and one written proof.
  • Monthly: cumulative exam; remediate weak areas immediately.

No shortcuts. Show progress weekly, correct errors thoroughly, and demand excellence.
