Recently, a group of experienced USACO contestants (led by the legendary Benq) have put together a "USACO Guide" that's designed to take you from any division to Platinum and beyond. It can be accessed here: https://usaco-guide.vercel.app/. Though it's structured around USACO, it can still be used by non-USACO contestants!

The guide provides a curated list of tutorial resources you can use to learn a particular topic, as well as a lot of practice problems for you to practice your implementation & application skills. It also comes with progress-tracking tools to help you stay motivated :)

This guide is still in the pre-release stage: a large number of modules, particularly the more advanced ones, are still incomplete. We are looking for feedback & contributors to help finalize the guide! We would very much appreciate the following:

  • If you have any suggestions, bug reports, or thoughts, please leave a comment for discussion!
  • If the wording of a module / module description can be improved, please leave a comment and we'll update it.

The following people have contributed significantly to the USACO Guide:

7/25/2020 Update: As we were migrating from Vercel to Netlify, we forgot that user progress was tied to the domain name, so your progress may appear to have been deleted. This issue is now resolved; make sure you are using the vercel.app link. Your progress is NOT lost, and is recoverable. Reach out to us if you encounter any issues. Apologies for the inconvenience!

Also, if you're having issues accessing the vercel.app site due to an SSL error, you can try this link instead: https://usaco-guide.netlify.app/

Note: This guide is not affiliated with the official USA Computing Olympiad organization.
