Total novice here, but I heard Robinhood doesn't let you buy/sell the same day unless it's over 25k? So if I buy AMC today, I have to wait until tomorrow?

Unless your account is flagged as a day trader, you can't buy and sell the same stock same day. Stocks have a 2 day settlement date, so if you buy today you have to wait 2 days before you can sell. Day trading has requirements like having at least 25k, margin requirements, etc
