go to a science teacher and talk him into signing you up. You have to take initiative for stuff like this.

USABO semis isn’t hard, and really isn’t worth much. I got in last year on 1.5 readthroughs of campbell. Finals is much harder/legit. I’d estimate I put in about 1000 hours into prepping to make finals this year. I read raven twice, the stuff on research techs from alberts, sadava twice, and campbell more times than I can recall. Also, I’d recommend looking at all the usabo questions you can find online, as they get recycled on occasion.
