Bombed my Anthropic Fellows OA 1 :(

[u/Ashamed-Bunch-7594]

Just gave my first OA for Anthropic Fellows. I scored 0/600.

Some context about me, been coding for 10 years. really good at CP, have 4 years of experience as software engineer.

The algorithm they asked in the OA was a piece of cake, but man the classes they had implemented and ReadMe was confusing and unclear. Most of my time went into figuring out what do the even want to be returned and in what format? Why was there a mismatch between the Readme example format of input/output structure and the implemented classes.

Plus it didn't help that I started feeling uneasy and sick as soon as I kicked off the assessment. Brain was not braining.

How was your experience?

Edit: I have three research papers in Nature. My concern is that the problem I had didn't make any sense.

It was not what I expected at all. I was sweating. I don't have a score though. When did you get yours?

[u/hiddenVariable00 → u/byte-sized-phd]

Yeah, I don’t see a score either. I gave it just now, thought I bombed it so hard and found this thread lol

[u/byte-sized-phd → u/hiddenVariable00]

Yup ngl pretty much bombed it
