Ratings on brilliant

I was wondering how one can increase rating beyond a fixed value. What would that fixed value be approx. for mechanics or EM ? Also how can one find the current highest in the topic or your own rank ?

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.

There's no fixed limit. I tried pulling my Calculus rating less than around 220, and failed. It so happens that after you reach a very high/low rating, even the 400 point and 10 point problems aren't enough high/low to affect your ratings!

Exactly so what's the high limit when 400 points qns gives you no increase on level you said the low level is 220 so what's the equivalent high limit ?

I have reached 2690 in algebra other's have reached higher rating as well.

There is no theoretical limit (either upper or lower bound) on the rating of a problem, or of a member. However, in order to get an insanely high topic rating, you need to work on insanely high problem ratings.

You can find your rank and rating on the stats page.

We do not disclose who has the highest rating in a topic.

Is anything above 99.5 percentile rounded off to 100 ? Then how would someone come to know their rank at high percentile

How do we find who has the highest rating in a topic?
