I score above average on IQ tests. Today, I would fail an algorithm interview. I have been building business apps. I can take an idea and make it a feature from 0 to database/api/web app.

I made a decision to just suck it up next year and practice algorithms. I have no problem getting offers from average companies. However, all the big dogs want data structures and algorithms. It doesn't feel right for me, but oh well.
