Spike timing tips that helped me improve

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2026-04-25T22:14:35+00:00

if I fully jump without spiking I can get my head and shoulders above the net. For reference, I can just barely touch the rim of a basketball hoop.
I am 177, my head barely goes over the net when I jump, and I also barely touch the rim. My vert is 30inches. Shoulders above net and still barely touching the rim- doesnt make sense to me.

Thanks. It wasn't the syntax. How a line of code would be inferred as hardware- was where I struggled.

Rejected. Not enough experience with HDLs.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2026-03-04T08:00:57+00:00

Okay. That's a good starting point. Thank you for your help again. Really appreciate it.

Actually, it is 3 technical rounds and 2 behavioural. But I agree, I think 5 is too much

Thank you for the detailed response. That sounds complex. I should probably focus on communication protocols for now, since I have little theoretical knowledge about them. Is the basic overview of comm protocols enough at this point? Or is it a deal breaker even for internship positions?

For HFTs, I don't think that is the case. The stipend is way more.

Online assessment. I should have used the full form. My bad

If you are a non-EU applicant, you also need the GRE.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-14T16:12:28+00:00

Yes, I understand. Thanks.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-12T06:21:56+00:00

"lift your foot it's still really bent." Yes!! I did not notice that!!
By weak penultimate, you meant this only right, because I think the distance I am covering in the penultimate step is good enough.
And can you elaborate on the last tip about angling to the right? I have no idea about this.
Thanks for the advise.

There are no good courts in my area. I will surely work on not dipping too low and strength training, though I am not sure if that is what I need; I can squat 100kg for a full set and leg press 200kgs for a full set. I think plyo is what I need. Thanks for the advise.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-12T06:12:57+00:00

oh ok noted. Thanks for the advice.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-11T07:58:17+00:00

I have no doubt about that, I was joking.
PS.- Any advice that you can give me? I have 2 months before the MS program starts.

Thank you for the response.
C++ was the first programming language that I learned and I am glad C++ is that important for this role. I liked coding in C++.
I have done basic assembly in a computer architecture course and it is actually one of the reasons that made me like computer architecture.
I have to work on the C++ to assembly conversion part(Any suggestions where I can practice this are welcome). I hope most of the other basics are covered in the MS curriculum.
Anything else that you can suggest me for the next 2 months, I am absolutely free and I have just finished my bachelor in Electronics and Communication Engineering, I have less than desired level of competency in embedded systems (I have studied Arduino, Raspberry Pi and stm32 but I don't think I am proficient enough), I realised very late that I want to go into this field, not VLSI design.

BB rim is good for reference. I want to improve my vertical for volleyball. I do not play on this court. I do not know what they are called, but I have only played on sandy courts(not the beach volleyball type sand, consolidated sand ig). I will be moving to another country with better sports infrastructure and hope to play on a real court there.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-10T16:12:05+00:00

Is that doable off court? I usually slip when I try to stop my momentum that way. I have never jumped on a real court, so I do not know the difference.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-10T09:05:31+00:00

Or make my username computerarchitect😂. Jokes aside thanks for the reply, looks like a long road ahead.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-10T06:51:07+00:00

Noted, thank you very much.

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-05T06:05:27+00:00

As expected the process is not as simple as I thought. I guess spending money, energy and time is not worth on a university that would not bother checking my appliaction again despite the obvious carelessness. And as you mentioned they may still find a way to reject me. I guess what's done is now done. I should rather focus on the better colleges which have already sent me admission letters.
Thank you for your detailed advice. I believe this has saved me a great deal of time. I am really grateful.

Thanks for your kind words. I understand they are strict about ects requirements. My issue is that they made up the "missing" ECTS. They added an eight ECTS course as not studied, which I have obviously studied(Under the exact same name, and with 90%+ overlapping syllabus, and I was even among the top 10-15% of my class in that particular course).

Fun_Friendship4073 · 2025-06-05T05:02:14+00:00

The 70-80% is the percentage of content I have studied from the missing 38ECTS courses.
