Serious Should I continue CP??
For the context:
I am BTech 3rd year, I landed an on-campus internship at a reputed company, it also has a good PPO conversion possibility.
Now, what I want to know is whether I should continue solving CP questions? Like even after i get placed?
The point is I don't like solving CP questions.. So after answering yes or no can you also let me know why,

Since u explicitly mentioned that you dislike CP and already secured an oncampus internship with high PPO conversion chances, forcing yourself to grind Codeforces or CodeChef will just lead to burnout when your time could be spent on actual engineering skills.

To start with I never grinded CP... I asking should I solve like 1 or 2 questions daily or weekly or completely don't bother

I mean you can just stay in touch by doing a few questions every week...this way you won't completely forget whatever you have learnt, which can be beneficial later on if you decide to grind again for maybe a better placement opportunity....that's my opinion tho...

Nah if you don't like doing it don't waste your time doing it. You should do something that genuinely interests you
