Hello everyone.. I am trying to prepare for IOI 2023. if there is anyone who has already participated in IOI please give me some advise.

My limit is 1200 level problems. I can't overcome my limits but I am still trying to practice. What should be my minimum rating in Codefoces So that I can at least win a Silver Medal..

I think you should be rated atleast 2100 on Codeforces

      the only way to get good at problem solving is solving more problems

        I was simply joking about how IOI is a lot of luck involved, just like any contest xD

According to your profile , you are from Bangladesh. To be very honest but there are already 10-12 potential participants form Bangladesh and they will serve Bangladesh for the next 2 or 3 years.They are practicing for last 3-4 years and it is quite hard to acquire higher skills than them in a very short period of time.... And informatics Olympiads are not only about winning a medal , it is kind of learning process in which u are preparing yourself for the next generation of programming. Don't think about medal if you want to enjoy this journey , have fun and try hard. BTW , sorry for my bad English.

    I don't know if there is such a magic number. CF rewards fast-solving highly, which I think helped lot in acquiring subtasks quickly. In the case of problem-solving ability, from my experience ~1800-1900 should be more than enough. You just need a good strategy and a good day.
