Congrats my friend, keep going u can make it up to expert <3
good job! i got +36 and my goal is CM by the end of the year, maybe i'll reach it!
The difference between me and expert is practically the same difference between u and CM. If i am able to reach expert, u should be able to reach CM! lol.
Congratulation I hope you become expert very soon
Bad contest for me :(
Nice to see not all greens are angry
can you tell me how learn concepts..
By practicing
i need path for practicing concept wise... i practiced 150 800 level questions in starting after listenting just practice :)
1) look at you current rating
2) round it up the number to the closest number that % 100 == 0
3) solve problems of this difficulty
4) and problems slightly above
Not that true tbh. One should be able to solve 80% of the problems their rating in less than 30 minutes, maybe even 10-20 minutes sometimes. I don't think you should do problems that you can solve that fast (unless you wanna train your implementation skills). A good range in my opinion would be your rating + 200-500
idk man, 1/3 of the problems of 2100 difficulty seem quite hard to me, and problems + 500 rating seem straight up impossible, I tried to solve a bunch of 2600 in a row, but I wasted so much time that it seemed like it was not worth it at all.
At least from my experience, it seems to me that I have a 50% chance of solving a 2100 problem during a contest, so choosing a difficulty where every second problem is challenging seems to me like a good idea.
I have heard a lot of people saying that a person should solve problems of quite higher difficulty than their current rating, but I believe that if we talking about long-term progress it is worse than solving at/slightly above your level. I can even imagine that solving 100 problems of difficulty (your rating + 300) will take the exact same time as solving 100 problems of your current rating until you reach that +300.
Maybe I am incorrect, but in my experience I only felt like I am making progress when I decided to "stop pretending like I can solve hard problems" and focus on easier ones.
I don't know man. These blue dude at my school can consistently solve 2200 problems in like 1.5 hour when practicing. Maybe they just have poor nerves control, or problems from contests they participated in aren't well tailored to their skillset
There's rating inflation(div 3 2200 is NOT the same as div 1 2200) and it's not so hard to cherry-pick problems. Does he check tags when solving? How many 2200s did he actually solve with no help whatsoever to make this claim. Do you really think many other blues can't solve 2200s within 1.5hrs lol? Contest pressure increases the time taken to solve a problem. Mental block/exhaustion happens. There are easier problems you have to solve before reaching that 2200 problem. It's probably the case that many people that solve 2000s consistently in-contest would be able to solve 2300s(longer time) in practice.
Actually, it's 50%. 73.6% of all statistics are truly made up
may be i should just relax :)
Haha, i must admit the green colour itself is quite dark so it gives off really bad vibes. This light blue colour on the other hand makes me feel much more relaxed.
thats how growth stops :)
Congrats brother !! It was a good contest for me too still trying to achieve my new year goal to become expert
Happy Learning :)
Same here! Let's hope we both are able to reach expert!
-59 lol. Congrats to you though!
Congratulations!
Congratulations, +186 for me too; I will try to reach Candidate Master by the end of the year, having tried for a year and a half. Hopefully this time.
Congrats!
