I know that is a while back but when I look at the current structure of the course at Warwick, I would still not be keen for my taste, but then I again I have the benefit of hindsight.

What are your weaknesses in BMO? Do you struggle with geometry? Inequalities? Combinatorics/ number theory?

Yes

Yes


I recommend
Plane Euclidean geometry theory and problems
Introduction to inequalities
Mathematical olympiad primer.
If you can work through these books you put yourself in a very good position for success in the competition.

consider Σun

suppose |un+1/un| tends to a limit L as n tends to infinity

then

if L>1 the series diverges
If L<1 the series converges
If L=1 the series may converge or diverge
