To go from pupil to specialist, my plan is to clear the third question of upcoming Div2 contests(with less priority on time and more on clearing the question itself). However, as I am mostly not able to clear the third question even with sufficient time during a contest(So far, I have been able to clear A and B), I wanted some advice from the more experienced members on codeforces, as I am starting to believe that my current method of preparation is not the most effective...
Specifically these questions mainly:
- What are the most common topic tags and difficulty level tag for d2c, and an effective practice regime to prepare for them?
- Any bonus tips are also appreciated.
- Also any tips to clear A and B faster is welcome. 4.(surely, this question must have been asked before, but I have not found anything relevant yet, so if anyone can link a blog regarding answers to the same, that is also cool)
