Just starting codeforces for real. I want to make 3000 by April 22, of 2027, just shy of a semester before I graduate at 20 as an electrical engineer. Do anyone actually read these? Well this is more so for me, to keep track of my progress. One step at a time, but I will reach 3000, I swear by it. I am currently 18, and I think I can give some competition to Benq or Jiangly (just kidding! im just joking, hey but who knows? I am quite determined.)
One question, to any red coders out there reading my humble post, do you compete in every competition? And is it wrong to register and not even participate in a event?
I felt terrible for registering for a event this tuesday, the educational one, and I failed to participate because I forgot (i'll put a timer next time I promise).
I know it seems impossible to reach 3000 in a year, only the gifted and talented get to go there it seems. I hope to prove that wrong, Whats the harm in trying right? Nothing to lose if I dedicate a couple hours a day to solving some problems (though as of late, it has only been 1 problem a day, or sometimes stuck on a problem for days).
Doing my first contest was a spark for sure, I didn't solve a single question. That's okay, it was more fun trying to do so. Well then, I don't wanna make this too long for myself. See you at the top, Tourist, Jiangly, Benq, and even Ksun48.









You do realize that even hitting 2000 in a year means putting in not just a couple of hours a day, but most of your waking hours, right?
Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it man! No I did not know, maybe its a little idealistic of me to think I can do it in a year, but I'd still like to try.
No, even the gifted and talented would take more than a year in achieving this. First of all, you need to reach Master in 6 months (as per your timeline), and hit top 100s consistently for that. After that, you need to clock top 25s in Div1. In short, to become an LGM you need to beat some. Unless you have any prior experience with other OJs (like AtCoder), this is quite tough.
Thanks for putting it into perspective for me. It means alot, really, now I know what to aim for.
