| Several of the problems from this source are matched with problems from Xuanxuan Qijing, which is for low to mid-dan players, so I would say it's around that level.

| I was in your exact shoes, was 5k on KGS and getting frustrated with lack of improvement and about to quit. That was when my parents let me go (was 16 at the time) on a 2-month Go program in Beijing, which aside from letting me improve 3-4 stones, had me come back to the US with a huge amount of pas... |
