The top 15 schools according to the report are UVa, Yale, CMU, MIT, UCLA, UPenn, Rice, Caltech, UCSD, Swarthmore, UC Boulder, Columbia, Stanford, USC, and UIUC.
This is voluntary data, the average CS grad from Berkeley doesn’t need a code signal test to find a job. The cream of the crop at Swarthmore likely does.
In my experience, coding tests for fresh graduates is a pretty terrible metric for how well that person would perform as a member of a software development team for business applications.<p>Data/science/research is a different story with a different skillset.
I felt pretty proud of myself when I scored 99 percentile on a codesignal exam. Especially since I consider many of their tests to be more legitimate than leetcode.<p>Some of their tests though are odd. I don't think the bugfix style is that good. But that also might be because I would just rewrite a buggy function
I've never heard of the General Coding Assessment. I don't know anyone who ever put his or her score on a resume and have never heard of it from anyone in the valley.<p>What's the point for a student to take it?
