Challenge Site Demo pwn.cse365.io - These challenges have been tested to the best of our ability, this doesn t mean they are 100% perfect. Be gentle, if you suspect a serious error in a challenge, please let us know and we will investigate it. Restarting the challenge on the website is a good first step to try if something seems off -
Helpful Hints - Most students see the final being a bit more involved than the midterm, so pace yourself accordingly. The Internet is an expansive place Use this to your advantage Don t be afraid to ask for help! TA s and professors are here for you and will be monitoring the discord/Piazza like usual. - A caveat: Don t message us saying How do you do this level? ; you will likely not receive any response. Please come to us with specific questions that we can work with you on. We want you to learn as well. - -
Helpful Hints - The Archives Use the Archive from Spring 2021! There are video recordings of every lecture like this semester. While much of the material is the same, you can find more examples of the challenges practiced in class i.e stack overflow, reverse engineering etc.
Helpful Hints - General Finals Self Care - TAKE BREAKS! I can t stress this enough. That ah-ha moment can come when you least expect it Make sure to be getting as much sleep as possible (avoid the all-nighters if you can) Finals time in general is very stressful for all of us. Please make sure you are putting your mental health first. ASU offers FREE counseling and crisis services 24/7/365 if things start to weigh on you. Use your resources! - https://eoss.asu.edu/counseling - -
