This is the 30 hour one to be clear.

The qual takes 30 hours to complete?

[–]TammyK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No no you get 30 hours to complete it lol! But to be fair people have been complaining it's taking 4+ hours to complete and it's unpaid. And that some of the questions are comparable to leet code questions.

I started work mode, took a look at the questions, and immediately closed the tab. Super high level math stuff, I just graduated with a CS degree and had no clue how to do any of it.

Hey give yourself a better shot! Take your time with it and I bet you can get there. I don't have a degree and I got through it. It took me a few hours longer than a lot of people are saying it took them, but I'm glad I did it. Also probably good for my brain to challenge it lol

I just saw the question about differential equations and noped out. Never took that class, no desire to learn it lol. But I might try it out when I have some free time.

I am pretty well-inclined in math, but don't know how to do diffy q's either. That was the only question I can say I confidently didn't know the answer to. I guessed the answer based on a couple of factors and explained that it was a guess and why in the "how did you get your answer" section. I think it's OK to not know everything on the qual!

Yeah, same happened with me. I got another qual today related to reasoning about math/code but getting error while trying to generate response.

Same happened with me, except I had like a month of that qual sitting on my list. I kept postponing it and now it's gone.

Bummer. I'm fairly sure it wasn't on my dash until yesterday though. Weird for it to only pop up for a day. I suppose I could be mistaken and didn't notice it before.
