# 79th place| My first competition medal | A jump of 501 places in the private leaderboard

In this topic , I would like to share my happiness regarding the competition.
I just got my first bronze medal in a competition. :")
On the public leaderboard, I was in the
582nd
position.  But , after the competition ended, I directly moved to
79th
place.
I would like to thank the Kaggle community in this competition for sharing their strategies and resources.
Especially,
[@abhishek](https://www.kaggle.com/abhishek)
,
[@nbroad](https://www.kaggle.com/nbroad)
, and
[@mihtw1](https://www.kaggle.com/mihtw1)
for their guidelines and recommendations.
I tried to learn a lot from the public notebooks and discussions and
tried to understand
each line of code. Then, I tried to modify them as per my understanding to get better results. The publicly available notebooks gave me a head start.
