[Trigger Warning] What's something you worked your ass off but still couldn't get it?

Sorry if this question bring bad memories

Was talking to friend, and they described their time prepping for JEE, got decent ranks but couldn't get IIT (got other reputed colleges) Everything but IIT. They have done fairly well for themselves, probably would have been on similar path had they got IIT admission, but that wound somehow never healed

I wanted to become a grand master in competitive programming. I was able to reach 2400 on LeetCode and red on GeeksForGeeks, but not on the elite websites.

I am still trying but sometimes I feel demotivated too so thought of sharing it

Hey guys, just letting everyone know I haven’t given up. It’s just hard to focus on it now sometimes because of life but I still try to do a few problems every week to not lose touch !

It’s just I feel low sometimes because of other life factors but sometimes I feel great too !

What was your IITJEE rank?

If not IITJEE, share your rank or percentage from any major exam or competition..

Personally, I sucked at IITJEE and my rank was 112,700. I am ashamed to talk about this to anyone normally but here I can share it.
