Brilliant for people who cannot access it regularly

Since in India, we do not have proper internet access, can you make a portion of the questions given every week as "Level-up" questions, i.e if those problems are solved, a person can level up?? Without a steady connection, it is very tough for guys like me in India to maintain their levels

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

  • Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
  • Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
  • Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
  • Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Hi Kashyap,

I don't think we could implement a system of problems that guarantee you a level up, because part of the point of leveling up is demonstrating that you can do all or most of the problems in a set consistently. We probably could make the system more friendly for people whose internet access is irregular. Note that you are only leveled down, if you answer questions wrong. A common way people inertially level down is that they start working on a problem, get their first try wrong and then neglect to/can't come back later in the week and finish solving it. If you do not work on any problems in a given week (for example, if you are on vacation), then your level is not affected.

Would the ability to print out all the problems help you? So that you could work on them offline and then enter answers on the episodic times when you have good enough internet?
