Is 3/10 score in this June Challenge 2014 good for a beginner?

I am a newbie, and this was my first participation in codechef contest. I solved only 3 questions, CHEFZOT,GUESS and FORGETPW. Is this performance good or bad for a beginner. And how should I increase my performance level.

Yes it’s fine.

  1. Read the editorials for the problems that you couldn’t solve.
  2. Write your own solutions.
  3. Participate in future contests.
  4. Rinse and repeat :smiley:
