Contest Ends, Ratings Finalized… But Where Are the Ratings based Problem Tags?

Hello Codeforces Team & Problemsetters,

First of all, thank you for your continuous efforts in preparing contests. The problems are always fun, educational, and push us to improve.

That said, I’d like to raise a small but important point. After contests, ratings get finalized and surveys are taken, but one crucial thing is often delayed or sometimes forgotten: adding rating tags to the problems.

For many of us—especially beginners—it’s very hard to judge the difficulty level of problems. Having the official rating tags provides huge benefits:

We can immediately understand whether a solved problem was below, at, or above our current level.

It gives us a clearer picture of our actual progress during contests.

It allows us to practice smarter, since we can specifically target problem ratings that match our goals.

Without these tags, many newcomers feel lost about how to measure their improvement or what to practice next.

That’s why I kindly request: please ensure that every contest problem receives its rating tag as soon as possible after the contest ends. This small change would make a big difference for the community’s learning experience.

Thank u for your time and for considering this suggestion

If u find this blog as an important addition plz comment your awareness about the issue
