I am a data engineer who came here to learn, to reprogram myself, to relearn programming, especially the fundamentals that I have forgotten over the years or did not learn during my masters a decade ago and my bachelor. So I am here to learn the fundamentals, I am here to learn C++, I am here to learn what people in quants usually do. I do not want to be a quant, I want to highlight, but I am just here to learn networking, C++, and operating systems. All the data engineering concepts, yeah, I am just here for fun. I basically like the website; everything is pretty organized. I like the quizzes and questions, and now there is also more material, there is a nice mock graph view of things that I need to learn. So it is really easy to follow and navigate.

The one thing that could improve is I always had issues, I would like if there will be some state management; for example, if I save the filter, it keeps the filter on if I go back and forth. If I filter Python or C++ and I go back and I log back in, I am always signed in, I do not need to sign back in, and yeah, otherwise all good, keep cracking!

It is a great platform for learning quant development specific things, I got related questions quite often from quant firm. There are a lot of coding problems and the platform are highly relevance to the quant space. It might not be very useful for preparing big tech interview, but since I am a quant dev myself, I consider it very useful.

This platform offers a plethora of questions and coding exercises to help you understand the intricacies of C++. For me, the best feature is the learning paths that guide you through the process. I wish I had started learning C++ this way. The platform also has some further material if one wants to focus on quantitative trading/research.

Tomer is running a great website - my favourite interview preparation resource, and I enjoyed others. Working through the tree of readings with tasks leads to the best user experience.

I've followed CJ for a few years and recently tried the free GetCracked trial while looking into quant, I genuinely really enjoyed it and can see the value, especially the roadmap, how clearly progression is structed and how it points you to resources outside of GetCracked.

I had some doubts initially, mainly around the Accelerator sales process and pricing, It's a pretty big financial commitment and I think more upfront pricing transparency would've been nice, everyone I spoke to was friendly though and genuinely tried to point me towards what they thought suited me best in my career.

What really changed my impression was how the team handled my criticism afterwards, they reached out personally, listened to what I had to say and were very open to constructive feedback, it genuinely seems like they're trying to build something high quality and improve it which I have a lot of respect for.

Still a few things I'd improve around the Accelerator pricing transparency and presentation, but that's really it. If they deliver on what they promise, I can definitely see there being substantial underlying value for the right person, but it's not for everyone.

Your in the good hand, with so many resources from roadmaps, coaches, resume rewrite. I was able to meet and talk to people from the industry and they are willing to help me steer to the right path.

My fav is coach 1 on 1 and townhalls when they share their experiences and common pitfalls so we can learn from it. You still need to put in the work to learn and improve yourself but it's nice to know that you're not alone in the journey.

The getcracked platform and the entire getcracked team are an unparalleled gold mine for building your quant skills and breaking into this domain. There is no other platform that offers one-on-one personalized coaching from industry experts, professional resume and LinkedIn restructuring, a Customer Success team that is constantly there to support you, hundreds of hours worth of pertinent technical content, near-daily townhall-style Q&As from your coaches and HR specialist, all while also surrounding you with other eager, motivated students.

Above all, however, is the pragmatism of their approach. No nonsense, no filler material, no generic-to-the-point-of-being-useless practice. All of the material prepared by getcracked is immediately applicable and relevant to the quant realm because the team and the coaches (again, all of whom are industry experts) know exactly what the students need in order to be successful, and more importantly, how to teach it.

Regardless of experience level, getcracked certainly has something for you.

This is easily one of the best investments I've made in myself and wouldn't hesitate to do it again.

Extremely responsive and supportive team, laser focused on helping you reach your goals and helping you through the process. Would recommend immediately for folks looking to grow.

I have been using getcracked.io for around 4 months now, and I think it provides a very structured roadmap for learning and getting good at quant interviewing. I love the resources provided for learning and improving at C++.
Also, the question-bank is increasingly getting dense and better, so that you can get more and more practice if you are preparing for any interview.

I also especially love the discord community, and the discussions which take place in the channel. You can find a lot of useful insights about the industry, from people who are ACTUALLY working in the industry.

I originally got getcracked to prepare for quant trading interviews, but it's ended up being useful beyond that. The questions have helped me get better at python specifics, probability, etc. I recently landed a data scientist role at a leading bank while starting my MS, and I'm still using the platform to eventually make the jump into a quant role. Definitely worth it if you're serious about improving.

Update: I've received an internship offer from a Tier 1 quant firm, and a big part of that can be attributed to this platform.

I highly recommend this platform for becoming better at low-level programming. The roadmap structure saves a lot of time compared to reading a book in full, and I have not seen anything similar to the quizzes offered here. They are difficult but train you really well and test your knowledge of the language at a very deep level.

Additionally, the quant-flavored coding problems are much more similar to what is tested than generic LeetCode.

I used getcracked as a means to acclimate to a new C++ role that was required deep technical knowledge of both the language and of optimization techniques. While it wasn't a quant positon, but a regular SWE position, getcracked still filled this purpose perfectly for me and also provides me with the resources to continue learning important concepts/topics to continue advancing my career.

Learnt a lot by using the platform. Questions go deep into how language works under the hood, everything is explained. Learning trees help structure studying plans, and save a LOT of time by forwarding to great resources (specific book chapters, articles on other websites or videos with timestamps). Every quiz ends with a summary that explains every question or coding exercise. Coding exercises simulate real world problems, not leetcode's style DSA.

To summarize: I recommend it. The quality caught me by surprise. The content library keeps growing, so it's only getting better day by day.

the good thing about getcracked is it focuses on what's actually important for the interview and job through its learning roadmaps, and helps you find the relevant sections of books to read!

GetCracked has an excellent number of resources for passing quant interviews, and has helped me prepare for my own interviews. Their bank of coding problems, and questions is excellently made, but their best resource by far is the learning plan, which covers languages and topics like networking, operating systems, and language specific knowledge to an incredibly in-depth level. Their community is also really active and very helpful, and they always listen for feedback and are constantly pushing new updates and features to their website. I'd honestly recommend this for anyone preparing for quant interviews or wants to gain in-depth knowledge on a broad number of CS related topics.

The roadmaps provided by the site are extremely helpful for learning. First reading and learning about a topic then answering questions about it is easily the best way to learn. The questions are challenging and engaging with the MCQs helping to solidify knowledge, and the coding problems improving your ability to write real, high quality code.

There's definitely a lot of effort putting into this program and I really like the way it is built so far. There are lots of content you can get from the program and you can be overwhelming as well.
Really honest, it IS A LOT. However, it just proves that the more effort you putting into it, the more people will help you achieve. Thank you for all the support !

Getcracked has a clear roadmap on how to become better at computer science and on c++ ,the roadmap is constantly updated and it is of high quality ,i would definitely recommend to start on this platform and use all the resources that it provides .

The roadmaps on the platform are excellent and have really helped me study what I need to in order to prepare for quantitative development roles. The elite program has also been fantastic so far, giving me a personalized roadmap and a coach to keep me accountable and guide me through my path to getting a job at a quant firm. The most valuable thing this platform gives you is direction, which dramatically cuts down on the amount of time you need to devote to getting where you need to be, by eliminating the wasted time figuring out what material is actually relevant and what material isn't

The getcracked.io platform is a game changer because it actually has a roadmap for you to get into quant dev. I'd say aside from the website itself, the community is a huge help and a great place to not only learn from peers but also network.
