Problem quality in Div 2 only contests
By hamisholmes, 9 years ago, In English

I have observed that in recent contests, the ones which were Div 1 + Div 2 had more interesting and harder problems than those which were only Div 2. I'm talking about problems C, D and E (or A, B and C of Div 1), if you compare any recent Div 1's A, B, C to any recent Div 2 only's C, D, E, I think the former would be more interesting to solve. Do you guys feel the same too?

You are unrated, and yet have observed so much already!

    You can see s/he has already solved four problems so far, so s/he is not some unrated user with no problems solved.
