How to improve at puzzles (explaning puzzle ranges)

I assumed you just guessed the move, there are so many good looking alternative moves
I don't know what a "guess" is versus how else I would ever do things. What I picked is the move sequence that looked the best.

I'm up to a rating of 2150 now just from doing the harder puzzles. Do you think I can reach 2300 @xDoubledragon ?

Hah sorry. But you're at almost 2400-level puzzles now, right? Remember that I've hit the 2200 puzzle range before but never really gotten that far past it.

I'm currently stuck on this one: https://lichess.org/training/3b9Ac

Probably easier for you than for me @xDoubledragon

EDIT: I failed the puzzle :(

EDIT: I'm losing more points for failure now, and this is draining my brain quickly.

okay I failed too, so many possiblities. I solved first move but I gived a bishop check instead of giving up a knight

I know why it is forced draw for black, because white can go up and down after series of Knight checks and black is forced to make checks otherwise white will play for advantage
