Become significant on smartinterviews
Feasible target
The No. 1 is Thiran Jakkula with 163,984 points. To be in safe spot 300,000 is needed. Here's an analysis on how to achieve that:
Get 2000 rating in codeChef, leetCode, codeForces. Then by the following formula:
- codeChef: (2000-1300)2/30 = 16333
- leetCode: (2000-1300)2/30 = 16333
- codeForces: (2000-1200)2/30 = 21333
we get a total of 53999
- Solve all (solvable) problems on leetCode: 500 easy + 1000 medium + 500 hard = 2000*50=100,000
- SmartInterviews: 1080 basic + 15000 primary = 16,080
- Hackerrank: Can do 10,000
- codeChef: 1000 problems = 10,000
- codeForces: 1000 problems = 10,000
By Problems solved we get a total of 146080
200,079 looks the max achievable
Time analysis
***the time estimates are valid only if the order is maintained or roughly manitained (diffusing immediately after or before is allowed)***
- ApnaCollege (C++): 28 hours remaining. Can be completed in 14 days max
- ApnaCollege (Alpha): 41 hours remaining. Can be completed in 10 days max
- Blind 75 | 12 Weeks . Can be completed in 4 days max
This plan, I assume, can easily get someone to the rating of 1700. Journey to 1700 is at max 28 days long
The Remaining Journey from 1700-2000
Modifications to Journey to 1700
Much Longer than Expected
***the time estimates are valid only if the order is maintained or roughly manitained (diffusing immediately after or before is allowed)***
- ApnaCollege (C++): 28 hours remaining. Can be completed in 14 days max
- ApnaCollege (Alpha): 41 hours remaining. Can be completed in 10 days max
- Practice (GeeksForGeeks): Approx. 30 total algo,ds topics. 10 Problems everyday for each topic on average is 30 days max
- Blind 75 | 12 Weeks . Can be completed in 4 days max
This plan, I assume, can easily get someone to the rating of 1700. Journey to 1700 is at max 58 days long
