Same round got me too. Statistical experiment design out of nowhere, no idea how anyone preps for that one.

Yeah mine was more about AV progress metrics but similar vibe, caught me off guard too.

Backtracking round would've gotten me too ngl, always my weak spot.

This is making me nervous for my own screen coming up, any tips on how to prep the graph stuff at least?

Sorry to hear it man, at least you got through 4 rounds. Congrats on making it that far honestly.

How was the system design round? Curious if they expect actual AV domain knowledge or just general system design skills.

Didn't feel like they needed AV knowledge specifically, more just wanted me to ask good clarifying questions and structure the problem. Felt more like general SD tbh.
