All of those schools are overrated
My ass MIT is overrated.
They set the hardest exams.
Their exams are too easy.
You can find them online.
Maybe for your Computer Science.
Their Mathematics and Physics are brutal.
The smartest US kids go to MIT. And even they struggle there.
average MIT student is not smart.
Only the ones that win olympiads in sciences are.
But still MIT is supposed to be a CS school.
And their CS students are nowhere near ITMO and St Petersburg State University.
Are you stupid?
physics Olympiads should have very hard concept problems.
That book is just university physics.
That guy is the head professor of Physics and Computer Science.
I think his opinion is more credible than yours.
But he is wrong though, or he has never seen Olympiad physics problems. Also JEE Advanced physics problems are NOT Olympiad level.
University physics is just using formulas, maybe some calculus. Not that challenging, you don't need high iq to do it you just need above average iq and practice.
Olympiad physics questions are very conceptual and they are questions that you can do all the practice questions but if you don't have high iq or good intuition you will not be able to solve them.
Are you a physics major?Have you studied University Physics?
Are you a physics major?

Only poor countries are obsessed with these science "olympiads" - they started as competitions in the communist countries so they could brag about how smart their kids are; the western, developed countries don't give a shit about these contests, most of their teams tend to be made from immigrants - Chinese, Indians, etc., because for them it looks like a big accomplishment.average MIT student is not smart.

Most of the winners from these competitions also rarely become rich or famous, they are simply absorbed by the big tech companies and work there as wagies, you almost never see them starting companies, coming with brilliant ideas, disrupting the world, becoming tech billionaires, etc.
There was a time when the Romanian media was obsessed with the winners from these competitions, and our country had quite a few, they were heavily promoted, interviewed, appeared on TV, etc., many went to study at famous universities, and they were predicted to become the next Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, etc., but most didn't achieve much later in life.
