Pretty common stuff that advanced kids learn in high school in the US[1]. I’d imagine MIT students can breeze through the questions in the Problem Set 0.

[1] Or so I saw in the bay area. Taking AoPS courses and even harder and broader content is pretty standard for kids in the bay area, for good or bad. It’s like there are two countries in the US. One has kids who take 10+ APs by grade 10. The other has schools that have median GPA 0.6. Sigh…



Breeze through is not true though. You can do a search on twitter and will see multiple 6.006 complaints.
