Tips to clear Google

  • Partial test cases count — submit brute force first.
  • Graphs, binary search on answer and DP are frequent.
  • Practise under a strict 60-minute clock.

Exam rules

  • Sections run one after another with their own timer. You cannot go back to a finished section.
  • When a section's time runs out it is submitted automatically.
  • To clear, score at least 80% in every section (our practice guideline, not the company's official cut-off).
  • No negative marking — attempt everything.
  • Coding rounds open each problem in a new tab; tick it once all its test cases pass.
