Hello Codeforces Community!
I have been choking in contests for a long while. I somehow manage to do hard problems (div2 D-E) during practice without choking but choke very bad even in div2 A,B and C during contests which leaves me very less or no time to try the harder problems. Even though i get the solution I cannot implement it. This is very demotivating and demeaning.
Please give your valuable feedback on how to prevent choking during contests.
Cheers

Drink more water.
Do more virtual contests.
Train to solve easy problem faster, it is also important skill
Where is correlation between good managing div2de during practice and choking in div2abc during contests? It's normal to combine these things. If you want advice — continue doing practice and do virtual contests, it's the only way to learn how to write them good.
