Last year I started competitive programming hoping I would become an expert by the end of the year. But I am still a newbie. I know I sound like I have an obsession with rating but it is a measure of my performance. I would really like someone to view my profile and suggest me what changes should I make in my practice routine. I generally try to solve 3 problems per day and if I cannot come up with a solution I read the editorial and solve that problem after 1 or 2 weeks.

Also, suggest me what algorithms to study to start solving 1600, 1700 and 1800 rated problems.

Please do check out my profile: L_ryusaki_912

After thoroughly analysing your profile I come to conclude that it's your profile pic and name that's stopping you from becoming purple.

:( jokes apart after solving 900+ probs you are still a newbie and that's really demotivating. I am not an expert or anything near expert in cp but what I have observed is that to remain, stable pupil, you have to solve div 2 A and B fast and the average rating of div 2 A is near 850 and that of B is less than 1200. So I will say go step by step, aim for a stable pupil first.

Again I am nowhere near an expert, I am just telling you what I am trying to do.

Try harder problems. I think you can actually solve some 1600-1900 problems if you are motivated enough to deal with struggle and mistakes. It will be hard and you might not know a lot, but the fun is in learning.

No div3, No rating

Even though your rating is 1100, your average solved problems rating is 1100 only. You have to increase that. Practice 1300 and 1400 rate problems more.

Hey, I viewed your profile and I think you need to upsolve harder questions after contests. and wow, you are really consistent. Keep it up and it would be better.

I checked your profile and I saw that on constests you regularly do A and B, but have problems with the C. So guess what... Practice more C or even D. Or even higher. You consistently manage to do A and B in first hour of the contest. It should leave you enough time to solve C or D. So just do it! :)

I think you should start solving problems in reverse order (from C or D) to get 'unstuck'.
Giving contests like Rainboy probably won't hurt your graph much.
And trying to solve problems 300-400 pts. above your current rating during contests can be really helpful in not just building confidence but also maintaining the next title once your rating finally does increase.
