lowiqengineer··on Ask HN: Do I have too low of an IQ to be a successful engineer?
I’ve done like ~250 leetcode problems since undergrad (including redos) and I still fare poorly to get into FB/G. I’ve probably done 3-4 at the FANGs by now outside of my current one but failed all of them, so I’m definitely below the average.

I think I get OK reviews (it’s pretty opaque at my company).

My lower IQ makes me concerned about weathering a downturn or making more money though. The only better offer I got was at a Hedge fund and that was a severe lowball (likely due to interview performance).
