It is not subjective to your skills, BUT to codeforces itself. In other
words, you could solve a problem in 12 minutes and it is so easy for you

problem, so possible problem level is 6.5/10 not 3/10<br>

Here is an easy way to assign problem level:<br>
<br>
1- Decide in a CF round, where this problem may appear. Say you think this
could be Div2-E problem<br>
2- From table, Div2-E range is 6-7.5 (6 for easy, 7.5 for hard)<br>

Note, sometimes in real rounds problems themselves might be not as hard as
expected from problem-setters. E.g. Div2-E problem was actually so easy (e.g.
you assign value 5)</td>
