Your application into levelOne will be considered only if you are a mark9. The assignments and markings are divided mark-wise to help you keep your pace and not get overwhelmed if you are an absolute beginner.

All the best.😁

how to ask for help

We have a 21k+ developers community at Discord who is always ready to solve your issues while you are learning to code with us. You can ask for help #showcase&review or #general-coding.

But before you ask for help, please first try to debug your code yourself. Here is a guide to help you do that. This would enhance your understanding to a great extent.

Help is given at team Tanay whenever it is asked. :D

Following are the mark-wise distribution of levelZero, for your ease.

Once you are a mark9, you can now apply for the neoG Camp 2024 Cohort aka levelOne through the admission portal. You will be informed about this soon.

Read more about the admission process here.

watching levelZero videos is not compulsory

If you do all these without watching the videos for levelZero, we are okay with that too. What matters is that you have a complete portfolio to apply to levelOne and have practiced the concept well for the interview.

about copy/pasting

Don't submit without understanding, we have kept a manual interview round only to check that.

We will be checking your understanding of the code. Any random project and would ask you to explain the code, maybe ask for minor changes in the codebase on the call itself.

Understand that we are not against copying work. The idea is that while copying you need to understand it. The best way is that if you're stuck somewhere, see someone's work, but don't copy it, type it yourself, without seeing from your mind. Then it becomes yours.
