Codewars: Practice Problems

Codewars is an excellent resource to test your skills. Completing several "Easy" (8 kyu) and early "Medium" (7-6 kyu) problems is good practice for the assessment. If you have trouble with the easy problems, consider taking one of our preparation courses, but if you can make it through most of the medium problems, you're probably ready to take the coding assessment.
