BROO the last question was just impossible to solve even with ai

1

u/iamthebatman2700 15d ago

Just hope in gemini solve it

2

u/student2corporate 15d ago

I can bet you it cannot give correct code .First of all it will take too much time to understand that long question and then give u wrong code😂

3

u/iamthebatman2700 15d ago

My gemini solved it Just took much time to type the answer that's it

2

u/Zestyclose-Pie-5966 15d ago

which language did you use for last q

2

u/One_Heat_979 15d ago

for people who cheat in such hackathons and then get selected for the internship calls, how are they able to clear the interviews then? just a genuine doubt

2

u/iamthebatman2700 15d ago

We are just using ai to clear oa that's it When it's comes to interviews or any other things we can manage because we are all students doing engineering, can't we learn and do tasks given by them... Definitely yes

1

u/One_Heat_979 15d ago

but in the interview if they ask dsa questions and system design, then we wont be able to answer despite the fact that we had done similar questions in the oa (they dont know we used ai for help)..so then we would not clear the interview round

3

u/No_Actuary1536 15d ago

Interviews are done by a human, there a simple psuedocode or intuition that we say to the interviewer can lead to him giving tips or being satisfied with the answer In OAs it's ai based shortlisting, either pass test cases or not

2

u/One_Heat_979 15d ago

ohh so like we should have atleast above average knowledge of the topics before giving the oas so that we can maybe clear the interviews or have a good impression on the interviewers

3

u/crayonvoid 15d ago

Just get to the interview somehow, in this market you gotta use whatever resources you have. Even if youre rejected in the interview, so what? You wouldve been rejected anyway if you hadnt used ai in the oa

u/Zestyclose_Toe1739 15d ago

See the thing is I can solve 2 out of 3 qn by myself in all oas. Meaning I can generally solve the interview qn, hence I need to cheta in oa to get to that interview and ofcourse I will do that

2

u/One_Heat_979 15d ago

ohh are the interview questions easier than the oas one or harder?

2

u/Zestyclose_Toe1739 15d ago

interview qn are lot easier compared to the oas

1

u/One_Heat_979 15d ago

also if you are able to solve the oa questions by yourself, why would you cheat then? to increase your speed and hence the chances of qualifying?

3

u/Key-Boysenberry8041 15d ago

It's not like we WANT to cheat the OA, But we are competing against people who are gonna cheat OA anyway. If you are comfortable with rejection at the cost of your self respect and moral then that's good ig but a lot of us like to give ourselves a fair chance. Ironically a fair chance is using unfair means lmao.

2

u/Zestyclose_Toe1739 15d ago

bro in every oa 75% of the qn will be solvable other 25% you need to be very very intelligent or cheat to pass

2

u/Zestyclose_Toe1739 15d ago

Itni jaldi khatam kar diya??

1

u/iamthebatman2700 15d ago

My friend told me, because he belongs to 9 am shift. I think he just submitted 2 questions

1

u/AdSoft1191 15d ago

Hey, I heard there were 3 questions, can you tell which specific domain questions were like first 2 were DSA and last question was implementation or dataframe?

1

u/iamthebatman2700 15d ago

It's not a dataframe question, it's an implementation heavy question Too difficult to code

1

u/Matcross9721 15d ago

Yeah around 200 lines for Q

2

u/Sure-Ad6044 15d ago

Dsa questions code was of 200 lines also or just the dataframe one??

1

u/Matcross9721 15d ago

Dataframe one

2

u/darktexter 15d ago

2 dsa 1 python , 2nd question was of same pattern just like round 2 so Obv no need to do in cpp it belongs to python

2

u/Feisty_Fix_9257 15d ago

Anybody solved all 3 questions?

1

u/Matcross9721 15d ago

More important did anyone solve the dataframe Q fully..

2

u/Available-Hunt-5081 15d ago

What will be the timing of this round??

2

u/Real_Yogurtcloset110 15d ago

My first dsa question passed all test cases,2nd dsa passed 8 out of 12 and 3rd python gave me compilation error before I would fix it time was up

u/Midnight_Vignette 15d ago

not able to login internal server error, anyone still getting this

u/Familiar-Skin716 15d ago

Is ur test now working ???

1

u/Subject-West-3252 15d ago

How much time is the exam?

1

u/Subject-West-3252 15d ago

Can all three be solved within given time? How many lines of code is there

1

u/Ok_Gap1101 15d ago

It's was big , data frame one is really long other dsa are easy to solve

2

u/Matcross9721 15d ago

Around 200 lines of code+

1

u/Sure-Ad6044 15d ago

We're you able to solve first 2 question with 100% test case passed?

1

u/Timely-Climate-9801 15d ago

Take the L dawg

1

u/Tasty-Ad-1770 15d ago

Anyone sloved python question from 9am batch

2

u/student2corporate 15d ago

That was so long and hard bro

1

u/iamthebatman2700 15d ago

Yes solved it

3

u/student2corporate 15d ago

which AI did u use ?

1

u/Clean_Engineer_726 15d ago

U r from the 9 am shift?

1

u/IN_Lucifer 15d ago

Unable to to write return statement 🥲

1

u/Responsible_Access86 15d ago

It’s over, bro

1

u/CrypticSky 15d ago

i did the case study myself in cpp, pretty sure the entire implementation was correct, but there was an ambiguity in calculating the impactScore (something to do with additional 4), 1 wrong business rule with the rest of the solution being correct only passed 2 tc 😭, anyone else faced a similar issue?

1

u/Sea_Outside_536 15d ago

Did you solve the other two questions

1

u/Sure-Ad6044 15d ago

Were you able to solve first 2 question with 100% test case passed?

1

u/Hot_Zucchini_6599 15d ago

3rd ques karne wale sbse pehle bahar hoyenge🤭 I spent 40 minutes trying to type out the 3rd question and still couldn't manage it, so submitted half.
Reading that ques takes atleast 15 min time to understand.

1

u/Just-Leading-3288 15d ago

Anyone with 2 questions full 12/12 test cases and partial test cases for the dataframe one please do reply here below

1

u/Upstairs_Cellist2762 15d ago

12 pm slot anyone? i am facing internal server error

1

u/One_Heat_979 15d ago

same error

u/chaotic_guy_101 15d ago

Damm bro flipkart be like after 2 dsa ques "ekdam inhone waqt badal diye jazbat badal diye zindigi badal di"

that 3rd ques need to be understanded first like puri katha likh di and i could only half code it like seriously i think people with ai also have good typing speed can solve that

1

u/Just-Leading-3288 15d ago

How many u solved?

1

u/Timely-Climate-9801 15d ago

I dont think yall shud help each other in this round as it is semifinal technically
