You're welcome.
Hey! I'll be doing Options 201 next month. Could you give any insights about the program and how to do well in it ?
It's a course so you do well in it by just understanding the material and performing better than your peers. There are no tips or tricks you either know the stuff or you don't unlike the interviews where you can kind of memorize interview questions and memorize how to do things. This course is just like 101 and if you didn't take 101 it's nbd you'll only be chosen for final round if you do well in options stuff so if you're a CS guy and have never heard of an option you probably won't end up getting to the final round. I converted my 201 to a final round then to an offer.
Is our performance in the course only based on how well we do on the assessments? Or do they judge participation as well?
On the website l can only see the akuna 101, where can l apply for the 201?
some of the sections about vol are really interesting i think the quizzes are going okay though def not 100% so I dont think Im going to get a final round
Hello, I also got into final round this year, just curious on how many people got the interview and received the offer. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for all the info!I jsut took the 201 2 weeks ago and waiting for the results. Just wondering does akuna do one more resume screening after 201 course? I pretty sure I did all quizzes very well but my undergrad school isn't that good.
Can l ask where did you find the course? Because l can only see the akuna 101
Think you have to apply for it somewhere on their job board.

Is this just for US students?
Hi, I was curious. When do the final round of interviews happen for people who are selected from Akuna 201? Do they happen in April/May or during the full-time cycle?
Did you find out? Thanks
Hey I am in the options 201 course this week we just had our first lecture, do u have any advice for it?
