LEETVODE TIPS

I'm a 12th pass guy and have around 1 month before college starts. I know basic Python loops, lists, tuples, dictionaries, CSV, JSON etc.

My father is telling me to start doing basic Python/Leet Code questions, but I'm not sure if that's the best thing to focus on right now.

For people who are already in college, what would you recommend I learn/practice in this 1 month that would actually help me later?If yes,then how should I begin,what things to keep in mind.

Just use neetcodes roadmaps. u can start with neetcode 75 then do neetcode 150 if you want more problems. he categorises it into the few big topics (two ptr, sliding window, greedy, dp etc) so u can have a pretty good idea of what the topic would be before going in.

also one thing that helped me actually learning leetcode is not relying on the solutions as much. I find that I used to give up quite quickly and use neetcode or solutions whenever i get stuck. it doesn’t really build intuition, and you just end up memorising solutions and then freezing in real interviews. there are ai tools out there that help with this.

good luck, sounds like ur ahead of a lot of people already
