What rating should I be at?
By megahertz13, history, 19 hours ago, In English

Hello Codeforces,

I have taken six contests so far and all of them are positive delta. I have attached a screenshot. I think that my real rating should be above my current rating (1352). Based on these rating updates, what rating level do I play at? (like what will my codeforces rating be when the rating changes flatten out). Thank you so much!

Most probably 1400-1450 (there's a slight boost in starting 6 contests so you got 1350) but 1350-1450 is a good and safe guess.

Easier way is just waiting and seeing it yourself.

First 6 contests have bonus points to reach a starting rating of 1400. The bonuses are: 500 350 250 150 100 50. By subtracting, we can find your real rating change as: -109 -7 -42 -1 +28 +83

It seems that you have slightly improved since your initial performance, and I would guess that your ending rating will be around your current rating (high pupil) or a bit higher (low specialist).

    Thank you, are those edited rating changes the normal rating changes a 1400 rated would experience?

      The original rating starts at 1400, then your rating calculations are based on that.

      Each next rating change will be calculated based on the new deltas (i.e. 1291, 1284,...).

      In short, yea.
