How did you solve the problems in today's paper ? What's the expected cutoff ?

I think if they can set the cutoff such that 24 people get, or set it such than 29 people get, I think they will choose the 24 option.

29 probably happened because the next option must have been like 19 people.

82

We only have 20 names for those with >= 100; I donā€™t know why everyoneā€™s anticipating a higher cut-off.

83

They are kind people.
They will select 29 if all get >=100. At ZCO many got 200 . Still they set cutoff = 100 and 67 people qualified. :slight_smile:

Maybe you are right. I actually have no clue, I was just speculating.

85

Any updates? :slight_smile:

86

Any update with < 100 is really appreciated :slight_smile:

87

Iā€™m unsure of my own score, and might get 100 or 130. sighs :frowning:

88

Why are you now unsure of getting 130?

89

Iā€™d prefer to discuss that on a PM; drop me an e-mail, @superty?

90

@idraumr What is the error?

91

Shagun , Parth of dps rkp and me would also be most probably scoring above or equal to 100.

92

That brings us to 24. Shagun has been to IOITC last year.

93

So now we have 23 people totally.

24, did you count ā€˜Manas Kumar Vermaā€™?

95

Yes. Did you count sandy?

Edit: Right, I counted number of lines and Rajat De is on the same line as Sameer Gulati.

96

when can we expect the results?

97

I was told within a week (from 31st Jan).

98

The result must be coming in a day or so.

99

It seems itā€™s going to take a few more days.

100

Why? Did you ask them? They arenā€™t replying to my mail.
Last year, the result came in exactly 2 weeks.
