Continuously struggling with my ranking in contest over and over again for a whole year, suggest some useful tips to become pupil in next upcoming 3-4 contests :(

Bro touch the grass and leave CP. It would be best for you. Thank you.
Bro, I can't quit before I reach PUPIL :(
You have no anime girls on your profile picture, fix that and try again:)
I agree with this statement.
Why doesn't anything work for me?:c
I had previously but lemme try again :) let's see
Two ways I suggest: 1.have a DIv3 virtual contest every night and solve at least E even if you don't solve other problems 2solve as many Div2C's as possible
useful
Thank you, I will consider
Hard stuck is sure painful, I'm also stuck at my division for ~ 3 months already... But just keep trying mate.
Watch great teacher onizuka to improve.
Solve easier problems, get stupid rewards.
do 1300-1400 rated problems.
The reason is you are solving problems only rated 800.
yr profile is scary! what are u doing? You've great number of problems solved,then y are u still there? I think you're finding the answer too,I hope you get it. I dont wanna end this year in newbie :((
is she ur gf?
The solve count shows valid concern. With this amount of solves you should at least be able to code easy problems fast and precise? Try taking that to your advantage, and solve Div2A+Div2B in 25-30 minutes (Div2A should only take 5-10) without wrong submissions? (or Div3A+Div3B+Div3C in 20 minutes).
If you practice the problems in your comfort zone, that couldn't be considered as practicing. That's why you barely improve after solving nearly 1k problems.
I partially disagree on this. Especially for a newbie, intensive "practising" at lower levels, albeit a bit wasteful, helps them a lot in implementation speed and accuracy if done right.
solve more >1400 problems
Bro, just subscribe for ChatGPT and learn how to prompt. I'm sure you will be cyan or blue in no time.
I'm surprised on how no one actually mention this on comments.
Maybe because it's against the rules?
There are 105 unsolved problems in your profile, solve them , specially Div2 (B, C,..) and Div3 (D, E .. )
atcoder abc contests are very useful
Only way is practice hard.
I haven't looked deep into your submissions, but it seems like you have problem with implementation. In form of practice i recommend going back to problems you weren't able to solve doing the contest, and do them (even if it takes long time, this problem is worth much more for your development than few random ones). Also it's kind of sad that people who practice as much us you cant even get out of noob :( (IMO there should be a rank between noob and pupil)
Solve the problems from this course: https://mirror.codeforces.com/blog/entry/131164
Extra tip: Don't read the solutions. Spend time and solve them by yourself.
Have a strong ability to solve simple tasks can support you to get Specialist(or experts if you are lucky enough).And for those problems,practise makes perfect.
You can try A-D od every Div2,most of them don't need difficult tricks.Think carefully before you read solutions.
